I know. Hard to believe, isn’t it?
In this day and age, finding something which is entirely accurate, verifiable and genuine is as scarce as hens’ teeth. And yet, I can absolutely vouch for this being all of those things (the accurate, verifiable and genuine ones, not the teeth).
Yes, it’s a very simple graph, but it’s completely correct.
Memories of the 51 up from town: the stop at the top of Church Street, just by the Thornton’s and the back door of Awkward Square. Racing up stairs, wiping the condensation on the windows from the rain-soaked passengers so you could see the grey clouds and puddles out of the front, and then being King of the Bus for the 20 minutes home.
Magic.
I’m just sad that my kids never got to experience it. Still, if and when they go traveling – as the graph points out – they will still get that same rush as adults that we used to get when we were young.
Halcyon days.
