During theis last week the UK has been hit with the worst volume of snow in 18 years.
And it has shown just how lazy and unprepared people are, admittingly the snow did make things like travel difficult, trains were cancelled ,busses severly delayed, many accidents on the road and many flights grounded.
I myslef attending a work prep course in Cosham, i have several opions as to getting the train fom Fareham to Cosham, or get a bus to the Ferry, go over, and get a bus to Cosham, on Monday i waited 40 mins for a bus service which should be every 10 mins (the 85 and 86), fortionatly Portsmouth was better prepared with more gritted roads and more services (the 41)
This snow has also raised another problem for the disabled and the elderly, as registered with the council we are entitled to a bus pass allowing free travel, however after 9.30 the bus pass is useless outside the council which issued the pass, this involved a severe argument as First have told me many times because the right side band is orange for disabled, the 9.30 rule does not apply.
Well a very miserable and unhelpful 41 driver refused to listen and throw me off the bus, thus causing me to be late, this realy annoyed me and i have even created a facebook group, this has the support of several visually imaired and disabled people, i also plan to send this to authority in a proposal to have the rule removed.
The snow also shows people lazyness and lack of comitment, i made it to where i needed to go even with a visual impairment, just because theres frozen water on the floor makes people think i cant be bothered, what a stupid excause.
Anyways enough of my ranting and thats it for this entry.
Until Next Time
