This was a few years ago when I lived near Hurst Green, and there were still regular bus services from Clitheroe up to Dunsop Bridge going on a lovely circular route past Bashall Eaves, Whitewell and round that way. I left the area - VERY much to my regret - when I had to give up driving and the bus services were being removed at a rate of knots. A few (only a few) have actually returned, believe it or not! The Londoners were staying at the Shireburn Arms in Hurst Green, on a walking holiday. This was a Tuesday and they were planning to go to the market in Clitheroe to get some 'local colour' - which they were quite out-and-loud about. The bus driver got cross with them when they were faffing about, didn't know who/how much cash they had, and expected to be able to pay by card - on a bus which goes through many areas where there was no mobile signal at all … He told them to either get on the bus, sit down and sort out the payment before we got to Clitheroe, or get off and wait for the next one … hahaha, two hours! They got on, managed to sort out the cash between them, and got a kindly - though effective - 'telling off' from a rather posh older lady who regularly used the bus to go into Clitheroe where she used to 'do the windows' of a couple of charity shops on a weekly basis, being a retired designer of some sort.
A few weeks later a sort-of similar thing happened except that the people concerned were on a long weekend stay from somewhere in the Midlands and they were like, wow this is a great bus service, every two hours even through this little village, and only four pounds eighty! Talk about the differences in expectation. And so of course they were treated to a nice running commentary along the route, better than any commercial coach trip!
