He should have been eligible for a bus pass a couple of years ago. You can get it before retirement age. I have only used mine a few times.

Mick may not know because they're not valid in Wales. ;D

We get bus passes at 60 in Wales, in fact I've just gotten the application form.

And by the way, no "twirlies" here, at least where I live, bus passes are valid all day, every day.

Yep, I'm counting the days until next March when I can claim mine! ;D

I wonder if the bus companies have a nice little scam going. Most times when I buy a ticket the destination, and presumably price charged, is for the terminus rather than my closer stop.

So is it just that English ones aren't valid in Wales?
