It's been a funny old day today. It started with our journey on the Cotgrave bus. As we were approaching the Meadows area ( Eugene Gardens bus stop) there was a bloke collapsed on the pavement, he looked purple, and not in a good way. The bus slowed down, and we thought the driver was going to ring the police. But no, he carried on. When we got to town, Kev asked if he was going to call it in. He just said he thought the guy was pissed, and not really his problem. So I called the police myself and said that I didn't know if anyone had called it in or not. The police said they'd been contacted by another member of the public and officers were on the way to the scene. They did thank me though and said to always ring just to make someone had reported it, as often things go unreported because people don't want to get involved. I have no idea if the guy was drunk, but even so, he obviously needed help no matter what. I was disgusted at the bus drivers attitude.
Also on our way up to the next bus, we saw a raven crouched in Debenhams doorway, the poor thing looked injured. If I hadn't been on the way to work I would have stopped to see if I could help it, but just as I was saying as much to Kev someone else had the same idea and went to see to it. I do hope they could help it in some way. We went past on the way home and the area was empty. I hate to see anything in distress like that, and yes I know it's nature, but it bothers me.
Then tonight on the bus home a car cut right in front of the bus on the Stragglethorpe road. The bus driver only just managed to avoid it... I tell you our bus journeys are never dull. I think tonight we need a drinkie drink!
Right, that's all our news for now.
