Viz a previous blog - on buses
I am not a car diver and do not have access to a car driver either.
Over the last week I have been using my leave
taking buses into Kent. One journey involved taking six
buses in one day - another three trains and a
bus.
The buses turned up on time and were well used. The majority of people used some form of card to pay.
All the bus drivers - quite a few of them were female - were all pleasant and dealt with wheelchair access etc - with patience. They provide a valuable social service. Public transport has not been abandoned in Northern Europe to the extent that it has been in England.
Some months ago I blogged about a breach of promise case that occurred in the middle of the nineteenth century and have been looking at the areas where the events occurred. Everything happened in picture book Kent, and in places where the National Trust has made it's presence felt. One great, great grandfather, and his parents, are even buried in a church owned by the National Trust and other properties are now listed buildings.
The information turned up though the landlady of a public house - now a tourist destination - sending letters to a relation in Australia. These letters,inadvertently, turned up on the Internet. Surely there is a film here without doing anything? Many farmers etc from Kent emigrated to Australia in the nineteenth century and their descendants come to Kent to look up their origins. Trials are stories in themselves.
