Wee Bags

February 14th, 2006

I get the bus to work every day, and the bus driver did something very odd and intriguing recently.

I got on the bus as usual and we set off on the normal route. Ten minutes later, as we passed through the next town he made an unscheduled stop at the side of the road on Main Street. He popped out the bus onto the road and ran off away to a car on the other side of the road.

When he came back he was carrying lots of little brown cloth bags which he set down on the dashboard. By the looks of them, the contained something fluid like you’d imagine a small bag of ball bearings to be.

The rest of the journey went as it should with the exception that he kept forgetting to go when traffic lights turned green. He was too busy looking into each bag in turn to examine the contents and setting them down on the floor. That continued for the remaining half hour of the journey.

What the hell was in those bags? I wanna know.

My favourite theory - stolen diamonds - is unlikely since he’s still driving the bus.

Woooh, mystery…
