And Justify The Stuff On Bus Shelters, Too!
And Justify The Stuff On Bus Shelters, Too!
jvergho by Julia Vergho March 1st, 2002
Everyday, I get on one of the busses from Streatham to Brixton. And every day I encounter strange objects lying around on bus shelters. I think I must have seen everything from old phonebooks to a lonely stiletto heel on there. A typical morning includes: one broken umbrella, one notebook, two socks and one flowerpot. Now how does this stuff get on there, if I may ask? Do raging commuters chuck it up there every morning? Has it been dropped from the balcony of a nearby council estate? I personally believe the stuff just flew up there, as things tend to act strangely from time to time. Every bus shelter has their Poltergeist.
