BUS STOP

A group of women gather at a bus stop and indulge in gossip to pass the time. There are two women, unamed, joined by Mrs Hickery armed with a bag of chips wrapped in newspaper and then by Mrs Finney carrying a shopping bag which she scatters all over the floor. Two well-dressed and not very frequent bus users arrive and there is a little touch of class conflict which never gets very deep. Finally they are confronted by a Bookworm, who, when she sees them standing there, informs them that they are going to have a long wait - there is a bus strike!|7 women_,
