YOUTH in the West Howe area have welcomed a bus company's decision to restore services to the area, as after two days without an evening service, their arsenal of missiles was running low and they had no buses to get to shops to restock.
Yellow Buses took the decision to reroute its 2b, 5a and 5b routes away from the area at night, after local youths had started catapulting missiles at buses. A spokesman said: "We didn't mind the odd stone or chestnut - that we felt was quite festive - but after the cow...we thought that was a bit much."
Two days without a bus service had left many of the youths running very low on stocks of things to launch at people, cars and houses, so when Yellow Buses announced they would be returning to the area after dark, residents celebrated. One local mother was particularly pleased: "It's nice that my son can return to something he loves. It keeps him from just lingering around the street drinking and smoking. Those last few days have been awful for him. Poole Lane is just too far for him to go on his own. It's not safe, you know."
Wayne Foreman, a part-time scumbag, told us: "I'm really happy. Now I can get down to the town centre and steal more things that I can throw. When the news came in, I was really excited. I opened up the can of Special Brew I was saving. Now I've got a massive load of bricks and stuff. Come to think of it though, we could have just gone down town on the bus during the day."
