Don't call me pal in that patronising manner. And don't try and second guess me either. What you say about you and your family if great . So why the attitude to those less well off now. You think they are the "undeserving poor" do you?
I've no idea what you are talking about with regards to the bus. I too have to get all over the region and occasionally the country for work. I usually do it by car for a whole range of reasons but if you want to get to Bristol at 7 am then get the train. I do journeys to get to places at that time quite often and so do loads of my mates. Whats up with you?
Also we have this invention called an umbrella which I can recommend for keeping the rain off.
