Leave the car at home, but where’s the bus?

RECENTLY I decided to use the bus to get home from work. According to the Bus Éireann timetable, a number-two bus was to leave at 7pm.

I was at the stop in advance of the departure time in case it came early.

But the bus never came and neither did the next due at 7.15. At 7.30, I was so frustrated I gave up and walked home.
