Bus comparison
After lots of begging to get to go on a bus in Sweden yesterday we caught the bus from my mum´s small village into the slightly bigger village to go to the library. I just have to point out these differences between swedish bus system and the maltese.....and know I wrote it with a smile on my face, dont read it too much into it :)
¤ The bus was on time!
¤ The bus stopped for us slowly and without screeching breaks
¤ The driver happily said hello back to the very excited kids
¤ The driver didnt start driving until we had sat down in our seats!
¤ The driver didnt smoke nor played strange music from broken speaker
¤ The bus had seatbelts
and finally
¤ We were alone on the bus

that is because since you left you did not have time to try arriva.... they are even giving tickets for free to compensate for all the kaos they are causing, but at least buses are clean and airconditioned, though people are grumbling because a half an hour journey is taking 3 hours and they are literally freezing.

Ppl always grumble and I think they need to give Arriva some time however as always I feel in Malta they just implement something new without thinking things through properly, routing of the busses (passing too narrow roads etc) and banning mobilephones while driving without thinking about the consequences when ppl will stop anywhere to talk on the phone instead.
