Waiting for the bus with an elderly couple. The woman asks me if this is our bus and I’m like if you’re going to X, yes! And she was like “I’m not sure they’ll let us on” and I was like huh?
Of course, I forgot. Pension age folk with a “60+” pass that gives them free travel, no longer have totally free travel. Jan ‘23 they made it so they are not allowed to use the bus for free before 9am.
Cos you know, they couldn’t possibly want to go anywhere or do anything before 9am 🙄
It was 8:59am and she asked permission from the bus driver and he let her on. She’s on the way to a hospital appointment ffs.
This country fucks me right off.
