I came across this one last night.
The video is 1 hour and 5 minutes long, and no, I didn't watch it all.
From Romford to Canning Town Station on a No.5 bus.
.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTm3P-pjtUM
The BBC would have you believe that Romford is in east London.
That makes east London at least 14 miles wide.
WALOFS
The bus doesn't get into east London until it passes the Barking and East Ham border, which is 41 minutes and 26 seconds into the film.
11 miles in 41 minutes.
The final 3 miles took 24 minutes.
Average speed 14 m.p.h.
Point of interest (1)
52 minutes - on the left - The Bobby Moore statue, on the right, The Boleyn pub.
Point of interest (2)
56:07 - on the left - Plaistow Police Station - I’ve been in there.
Point of interest (3)
56:19 - on the left - really old Hovis bread sign - probably older than kenny mann.
Bearing in mind the time he spend at bus stops the driver must have been well in front of his schedule.
Bookies shops from The Abbey Arms to Canning Town, which is half a mile, if that.
56:49 - right - Laddies
57:44 - left - Coral
57:47 - right - Paddy Power
1:01:05 - right - Laddies
1:02:18 - right - Hills
Not bad for the 3rd poorest borough in London, is it?
Point of interest (4)
1:03:53 - the tall building on the right was once the Royal Oak pub and boxing gym, home of champions, including Frank Bruno.
I hope you enjoyed your journey.
Put up a bus journey of your own for this fine thread to continue.

Just to cheer up Baron Stalker.
Despite the bus going through some right sh*tholes, there were no reported rapes.

Someone has posted a vid of my bus journey home, were I to use the bus from Brum city centre - though I would get off a bit before he does.

Who was driving that bus Muntz, Lewis Hamilton?
It was in Birmingham, so it must have been Nigel Mansell

Bus makes a lot of stops.
I'd remove at least three of them.

I was looking on youtube for Mountain Goat routes in Cumbria. MG are the local minibus company.
I did find these though.
Hardknott and Wrnyose passes - all the way over, 21 minutes in a car (a bit slow)
.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6apbooDqFbY
and
The Hardknott Pass - just the ascent - by bicycle
.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzNfufUHh9Q
You can see how hard it is at 3:30 and by 5:50 he passes two who gave up and were pushing their bikes, another one at 6:20. At 12:30, see the camera rock from side to side as he’s out of the saddle again, and passes another pusher at 12:50, he even had the breath for a chat as he passed him!!!
Going forward to 15:20 he passes another 3 pushers but breathing too hard for a chat this time.
Passing a few more pushers, he got a ripple of applause as he got to the top of that part of the climb. He sounds knackered now, he’s breathing in and out once a second.
All the way to the top without stopping once.
Amazing effort.

For example "New Malden, for that is where we were, seems to host a significant South Korean population as they have several shops, restaurants and centres round here. "
Trains are fun too.

Argumentative Somali at a bus stop in London.
Dirty stinking coont spat on a bloke who was trying to calm him down.
An Irishman threw him on the bus about a minuter later, where he stayed.

This one is class.
Two different races, but it never got in the papers as racism.
An african telling a Jamaican 'go back to your country'...on a London bus.

The Somalian wanted running over with a bus.
That video would have been a lot shorter if he spat in my face.
A lowlife scumbag immigrant spat at my wife and threw a can of drink at her about 11 years ago. It took me a while to find him, but only about two minutes to explain the error of his ways. When you're drunk, picking on a woman who is barely 5 feet tall isn't good for you, especially when her husband is 6-2 and over 17 stones.

You need to curb your keyboard warring and get some exercise - you're officially obese!!
And that's assuming you 'only' weigh SEVENTEEN stones.

Fancy your chances against a 'fat' old man man....boy?
Btw
according to the 'death clock' that appears on here now and again, I've been dead for about 7 years, so you have a slim chance.

No, the case of that lady in the disgraceful footage wasn't plastered all over the BBC. I don't know whether she was sought by the police, let alone be arrested and charged. It certainly wasn't given any significant television news coverage.
Curiously, a short time before these appalling events took place, there WAS an infamous case of a white woman who spewed out a racist diatribe on a tram. She WAS plastered all over the TV news and basically hunted down with dogs. Arrested and charged and eventually given a community sentence.

Update : the woman who made disgraceful remarks about white people in that appalling video WAS questioned by police, but curiously is not named in this report. I have no information as to whether the matter went any further.

Under the video of the black woman doing her deranged nut, somebody mentioned Emma West, the white girl castigated in every newspaper in the UK.
Wesdag's bottle has gone.....as expected.
Another one proven to be all talk.

Here's a streetcar journey in San Francisco filmed way back in 1905. There were obviously no rules in those days on who had the right of way.
