ON November 20 returning from Braehead Shopping Centre I waited on McGill's 12.30pm bus to Largs.

It duly arrived and broke down, leaving myself and others waiting 30 minutes for the next service.

On Tuesday November 21 I got a train to Paisley and boarded the McGill's 10.35am bus to Clydebank.

The bus went one stop and broke down, again leaving all passengers waiting 30 minutes for the next bus.

The same day, returning from Clydebank I waited for the McGill's 3.45pm service to Paisley.

The bus arrived in Clydebank but did not appear for the return journey, and yet again I waited 30 minutes for the next bus.

So much for us being urged to use public transport, and so much for keeping reading about our award-winning bus company.
