The spare bus arrived early at Victoria. If your bus had carried us all through, I'm confident that it would arrive early as the spare bus.

The bus driver was very rude, lied about not having a toilet which led to the driver leaving people behind as they went to the toilet when we stopped, swore at us and made the journey unbearable, will not reccomend to family and friends and I personally will not travel again with megabus
