Roses are red, the bus is on time, I never knew love until I saw you in line!



Roses are red, the seats are askew, coffee’s gone cold, and so are you.



Roses are red, the route’s a disaster, if you’re late again, I’ll make you walk faster.



Roses are red, the route’s a bit long, but let’s get a pizza and sing a song.



Roses are red, this much I can see, violets are purple, so stop arguing with me.



Roses are red, violets are blue, get on the bus, or I’ll leave without you!



Roses are red, my fares are all due, white wine’s cheaper than a ride for two.



Roses are red, the roads are all blocked, I’m unoriginal, but my bus is well stocked.



Roses are red, the bus lane’s so mellow, I’m hoping this poem will get me a fellow.



Roses are red, the bus is on cue, you’re a bit mad, but I’ll still drive for you.



Roses are red, the route’s quite wide, you’d look better with me on the driver’s side.



Roses are red, the seats are so tight, how about we explore what's hidden tonight?



Roses are red, I’m stuck in a queue, I hate poetry, but I’m into you.



Roses are red, the brakes they squeak, but I’m more into you than my steering wheel creaks.



Roses are red, the fare’s a bit steep, but let’s get together and make this love leap.



Roses are red, the heater’s turned up too, is it just me, or is it you?



Roses are red, the bus is on track, I’m allergic to flowers, but I’ll drive you back.



Roses are red, I’ve got routes to plan, romance isn't dead, I’ve got a bus in hand



Roses are red, the fare’s overdue, but you’ve made all my dreams come true!



Roses are red, your body’s a tease, let’s ditch the bus and do as we please.



Roses are red, your touch is a spark, let’s get off this bus and light up the dark



Roses are red, your lips are divine, how about we skip the stop and make some time?



Roses are red, let’s make it a thrill, I’ll take you somewhere, and we’ll go for the kill

Trump’s Tariff Tantrum: And We’re the Ones Driving the Fallout

When the markets crash, I don’t need Bloomberg to tell me. I see it on the faces at the bus stop. Tariffs go up, and suddenly everyone’s carrying packed lunches and stress. The billionaires aren’t panicking, they’re shopping. Economic Repercussions You can always tell when something’s up in the economy. Before it hits the headlines, it hits the bus. The bloke who used to chat about upgrading his car? Now asking if we’ve got any driver vacancies. The regular who used to buy a coffee for the ride? Cold flask. Same coat. Worn face. The fare dodgers are sneakier. The pensioners quieter. Everyone’s just… a little more tired. And me? I’m still driving the same route, dodging potholes the council can’t afford to fix, thanks to budget cuts brought on by yet another economic shake-up dressed in red, white, and blue. This time, it’s Trump’s tariff circus again. Round two. "America First" they said. More like markets last, small businesses folded, and guess who’s still getting richer? Y...

The Supreme Court Ruling Arrives… Somewhere Between Murrayfied and Mayhem

A Supreme Court ruling. A laminated headline. And a furious debate over womanhood... on a Thursday morning city bus. When national policy hits the Number X12, guess who gets caught in the crossfire? Spoiler: it’s the one with the steering wheel and no legal training. The Bus Stop Becomes a Battlefield I was three minutes early at the Exchange stop, which, in bus-driver time, is essentially a miracle, schedulers must have made some improvements to the timetable. The clouds were low, the queue was long, and Carol was armed, with a newspaper clipping, laminated and annotated like it was a sacred scroll. “Driver,” she said, climbing aboard like she’d been summoned to Westminster, “are trans women still allowed on this bus? Because the Supreme Court says…” I’m Just the Driver, Not the Department for Defining Women Now, I don’t sit in the Lords, I don’t wear ermine, and I didn’t rewrite the Equality Act over my tea this morning. I drive the bus. That’s all. But Carol had clearly made me the ...

Trumped by the Fare: When Coin Tosses Meet Trade Wars

Fare hikes arrive, Trump announces tariffs, and somewhere in the chaos, a man boards with last year’s change. I break the news with a smirk and a made-up tax. Confusion? Always, comedy? Guaranteed. When Small Change Meets Big Policy Some updates come with posters and emails. Others arrive via a baffled punter clutching three coins and a question mark. There’s something deliciously poetic about fare increases and global politics colliding at the exact moment someone’s rummaging through a lint-filled pocket for exact change. It always starts the same way: a familiar face boards the bus, throws in a few quid, exactly the same as they did in 2022, and expects time to freeze. Then they stand there. Expectantly. Waiting for a beep. A receipt. A miracle. Anything. “Sorry,” I’ll say with a gentle driverly shrug, “there’s been a slight fare adjustment.” Cue the blank look. The "Oh no, not again" furrowed brow. Sometimes the squint, as if the hopper might spit the coins back with an ap...
