On the bus with DH, toddler DD (19 months) in pushchair and newborn DS (17 days) in sling. Travelling through bog standard, middle class suburbia.
As we board, bus driver snaps that we'll either have to fold the pushchair or get off now. As we're fumbling to fold the pushchair whilst clinging onto a tired and wailing DD, other passangers are elbowing past and paying no attention to DS whom I'm trying to protect, and the bus driver is shouting at me to hurry up.
Nobody at all offers DH or DD a seat, and the only person to offer me one is a woman of at least 70.
Having an ashamed-to-be-British moment.

to feel absolutely disgusted by what just happened on the bus?
