Pics for Oskar

Today we had an exciting morning with a broken down bus right outside our window. Just like when Thomas the Tank Engine broke down and Bertie bus came to collect the passengers; another bus had to come and take the passengers to where they were going. We watched all the people get off and onto the other bus and then the driver lifted up the bonnet (hood) to see what was wrong. Then along came a mechanic in his truck and they worked out (with us watching) that one of the belts was broken. Cooper got to climb up some little steps and into the bus-driver's seat and see all the levers and touch the big steering wheel. The bus driver poked his head through the window and pushed some buttons that made the seat go up and down whilst Cooper was sitting on it. And then the world's biggest tow-truck appeared (at which point we came inside as that was a little bit too scary!) and towed it away.
