I have had mine for 14 years now, but rarely use it.
Came in handy when visiting Edinburgh, and use it when taking the car(s) to be serviced.
Takes a very long time to travel 10 miles across the city by bus.
Write your comments here...I find it a nice change to let somebody else drive now and then, and the jouney's that we undertake by bus (Cornwall), it is also pleasant to sit upstairs on the bus and see the countryside that you never see as a driver.

I've found that the ground is much lower than it used to be.

But it is much more difficult to get up from it.
have you tried getting up from a deckchair? known as an OAP trap in our house
we like our bus passes because they extend our walking scope. Bus out to furthest point, walk back. Do tend to only use them out of rush hour though!

We would use ours far more if there were actually regular buses that went into town, Getting from here into the centre of Glasgow involves 2 buses, takes well over an hour, and is only a distance of about 7 miles.
If we go into town we either drive and park, or drive to our daughter's house and get the bus from there.
Taking the car to be serviced, to get home (or back to the garage) involves a 10 minute walk at one end, 2 buses and then the necessity for a lift from bus to house.
