Sir, - Last Monday evening, in the so-called peak period, I waited half-an-hour for a bus from Blackrock to Ballsbridge, during which time at least three "As Seirbhis" buses passed.

On the journey, we made a stop on Merrion Road, at which four unsuspecting tourists got on. Due to the exact fare system, and having only a note, they had to get straight back off.
