Bus numbers

[cite]Posted By: Stig[/cite]I can honestly say I've never heard of "Old Years Night" before. What other quaint sayings and phrases to the old folk have?

My gran used to say that.

They also tend to say 5 and 20 past the hour rather than 25 past etc,

Fug me, how old are these old people? ;-)

My dad says it occasionally and he's 83

[cite]Posted By: Off_it[/cite]I used to go to home games on a 54 (fifty-four)

Back in the day, I used to get one of the very old type 89 buses from Welling Corner to the Fox under the Hill.

Halfway up Shooters Hill the old bus would start wheezing and spluttering - and on a good day we'd come charging triumphantly over the brow at 5mph and then free rolling unstoppable downhill.

Yes, I used to be on that poor flipping bus as well! Those were the days eh Oggy.
