	The bus to Hanbury Wharf runs twice a day but only on Tuesdays and Thursdays. To begin with it had me panicking as it was 8 minutes late and no one else was at the bus stop. When I got on, I noticed that there was a vase of carnations next to the driver's ticket machine. The bus had just me to begin with. Then locals got on at various places. There were 9 of them by the time I got off. I guess they were all on the way from villages to Droitwich. One gave the driver a box of chocolates. And as I got off a passenger got on with his budgie in a cage. The driver said he often does this.
