CULTURE can be powerful hard on the feet. London Cityrama and Wealden Motor Services are doing their best to prevent the dogs from barking by introducing Culture Bus, a flexible 18-mile circular tour of the capital with 20 stops at which passengers may get on and off as they wish. London Transport is none too pleased, especially as the newcomers are rubbing salt in the wound by using yellow-painted former LT double-deckers.
I hope visitors to London will be more selective in their souvenirs than the 18-year-old history student from Blandford who recently went on a school 10-day coach tour of Continental battlefields. He brought back an unexploded 75mm anti-tank shell from woods near Verdun which might have blown the coach and everyone in it skyhigh.
