thought i would share something i was on a bus going to durham we got going and half way there the bus turned the corner. has it did so i fell off my seat and banged my knee on the floor landed with my head in my grand daughters knee. she nearly wet her self with laughing i had to laugh myself has it did not look right . when i got off the bus my granddaughter was still laughing her head off. i mentioned it to the driver who said there is something wrong with the bus and that he came out of his seat twice. i got home and as usual everyone iv told has laughed at me. however i do think iv pulled some muscle in my groin has its felt a little painful since. i think next time i go on a bus i shall sit on the inside of a seat not the outside.

Feel mean now - because I had a laugh too! Do sit on the inside next time! AND I agree with Katlover if it is still painful go to the Doc. TAD xx

Had to laugh about this and will watch where I sit when I go to Durham, 9 miles is a long way to be watching out for bends. However, I have to say that if the driver said that something was wrong with the bus and that HE had come out of his seat, then why was it in service? I hope that you aren't in too much pain and that you get some relief. I also hope that you make

a claim against the bus company for they are responsible for you safety whilst you travel on their buses, regardless of where you sit. x x x

Glad that you are ok, Pearl. I know what you mean about waiting for a doctors appointment. Just as long as you aren't in too much pain, that's the main thing. Take care :) x
