Mystic Last Bus
Tidying up my picture archive. Found one that I had forgotten all about. Taken from the front of the top deck of the bus. Late night journey home.

Hmm. Interesting article - though the brightness could have been improved up - it was too dark.
One question - when does the first and last bus go - Here - the first buses leave their depot at around 5 am, the last (regular buses) terminate at around 11 - 11:30 pm. Though there are special nite service buses which run at 1:30 in the am - for the late nite workers and movie goers.

Very arty photo indeed Jag. Nice one!

Sat - almost the same here - the first bus goes at around 5:15-ish - and the last one goes at around 1am. After that - London's "night bus" network kicks into action - and these run between 1am-ish until 5:15-ish. So - there are buses around the clock 24/7 - but the night-time hours are different routes and different timetables.
Stu: thanks - funny - cos I didn't think it was arty at all at first - in fact still don't.

At first I thought 'Ooh clever trick of the light!' until I realised that it was graffiti...

That's pretty much what I thought when I looked at the image - but the reality of it dawned upon me when I remembered that even toughened London-bus glass is not immune to the die-hard "graffiti-artist" !
