Wow, today the bus I am travelling on has an alarm on the doors to signal that they are closing.
Tell me, do all buses have this?
I have no idea if all buses have this because I have never heard one before.
Today, however, I am sat on the top deck directly above the back doors of the bus, and sure enough, I can hear a kind of low siren thing whenever we stop at a bus stop.
It's most odd to be able to hear it. In fact, I nearly got up to leave the first time I heard it as I thought it was some sort of emergency alarm.
It never ceases to amaze me how I hear things the randomest of things sometimes and yet when I pick up the phone, all I hear is gobbledygook... I guess this alarm must be just the right frequency for me or something.
I wonder what else I will hear today...
Fingers crossed it'll be something good.

Not all busses, but some do that beeping thing every time they stop. Others do it only when the wheelchair lift is being put down.
