In the dim distant murky past I drove busses in Manchester, and I have been verbally, and physically abused, I have been spat at and threatened more times than I care to remember.
On one of the many occasions that the lovely members of the general public had been ripping up seats and urinating from the upstairs windows I had "diverted" my bus. Then by the time the Police arrived I would be a sorry sight.
Unfortunately the “yob” culture is now migrating further than town every weekend and they are using aircraft to travel to the far-flung places, and taking their behaviour with them.
I am not a betting man but I would love to wager that with the increase of cheap flights then these incidents will become more widespread.
My only good memory is when on a late night service on my own; I got to hear the lovely sound of fire extinguisher on bone
