Grateful for the buses running. Apparently there has been a tentative agreement that the drivers should have their former pay restored but that the money should come not from taxpayers but the bloated management. Hard to disagree but hard also to imagine this as other than management delaying tactic. Meanwhile we take a bus out to Cambanella's and join Jane and Bill as well as Hazel and Bob (who we met at Christmas) for the Sunday lunch. Always a feast, and the lady of the family, presiding at the carvery, as hurt as an old fashioned grandmother when she can't persuade you to agree to a week's worth of the various roasts on your plate.
