IN the last few months Stagecoach put on the

No 23 bus which runs directly from Bream to Gloucester.

As we are encouraged to use public trasnport whereever possible I decided to do just that.

I have used this facility twice now and each time the bus has broken down. Each time the problem was the same – bus overheating. Today I was sat on the bus for well over an hour before a van turned up with some water! I have been advised by a reliable source that this is a regular problem.

I shall not be using public transport again.

It would be interesting to know how many other people experience these problems.
