They had to rebuild the Coachway to cope."</i><br /><br />Arf! My one enduring memory of National Express journeys is the stop-off at Milton Keynes, where we got to sit for ten minutes watching the Crap Skateboarders. The Crap Skateboarders were brilliant! Every journey they'd be there, trying to pull off the most basic of jumps and instead managing the most elaborate of faceplants. In all my years of making that journey, while the rest of the world moved on, the Crap Skateboarders remained reassuringly crap.<br /><br />I might go back one day to see if the Crap Skateboarders are still there. I hope they are.Jamesnoreply@blogger.com
