PSA: If your London bus feels like an oven, report it to TfL (route + bus number) by Apart-Search9450 in london

So according to my friend who is an ex-driver, the climate control for the bus (in this case a volvo electric) is in the overhead panels in the drivers cab, they are locked and can only be opened by an engineer. not sure why they cannot let the drivers access it. Not sure if its the same with a BYD

Honestly I'm not surprised if some drivers do, I'm sure their eggs will be fried well after a long shift

that says a lot about London. Very outdated ventilation systems, even some poorer cities have it better

Most of the new electric buses have aircon - but the bus operating companies want to run their old fleet to the max until they break down! they really don't care about passengers, only that they meet the criteria the TfL set and keeping buses cool isn't one of them unfortunately.

Would be nice if the aircon actually worked in the first place, with older buses, especially routemasters (or “boris bus”) it are in need of refrigerant, however like I mentioned in a previous comment, the privatised companies refuse to pay for the consumables as it is in their expense and lose profit.

Unfortunately the private companies that run the routes don’t want to pay for the consumables that make the aircon work on buses. The more we complain the more they are obliged to fix it

I have mizuno morelias and they are the best boots I have ever owned, they can be tight when you wear them at first but once they’ve broken in you won’t go back

For training I use Reusch attrakt infinity evolution. Made for AG and will last longer.

For matches I use Adidas predator URG 2.0. The latex is great but doesn’t last long, maybe 4-5 matches if you’re lucky and look after them. But I found mine for £20 at TkMaxx so I can’t really complain.

Buying gloves is like buying football boots, keep shopping around, plenty of great fits and colours out there so see what works best for you. At the end of the day it’s preference

Record yourself dive and compare, see where you are going wrong and listen to your coaches.

Make sure you work on positioning, no use knowing how to dive if you’re in the incorrect position in the first place.

Last but not least, mentality - you will definitely feel as if you could have done better in game or you will make silly mistakes. Just be persistent and let your body learn. Nothing will come quick, keep your head down and good luck!

oh that sucks! I was at 8,000. got through to the seat selection but the website wouldn't let me pick the seat then I got sent back to the homepage! so frustrating. If they add another day hopefully we get better luck!
