A Dublin bus driver in Dublin's snow
Yesterday afternoon close to 5pm a bus was parked up near the Dropping Well in South Dublin. The driver was unable to get the bus up the hill due to snow. We got chatting. He asked me if I had seen a young boy at the bus stop just some metres from where he was parked. He had let off all his passengers at the stop. He noticed that the boy, not Irish, was somewhat disabled and he was concerned for him. He felt that the young boy, once taken out of his routine would be experiencing difficulty. He went on to tell me that he managed to get the boy's mobile telephone and found his mother's number. So he called the number and told the boy's mother, who said she would come and collect him.
