On the buses

Sir, – On Wednesday morning, after two years of working from the kitchen table, my wife, excited to finally make it back into the office, took a giant leap onto the 47 bus. Within minutes, the bus broke down and everyone had to get off. Disembarking back into the drizzle, the bus driver couldn’t tell anyone when the next 47 might arrive. Undeterred, she hopped on another 47 on the way home. It too broke down. – Yours, etc,
