"It seems that Dublin bus has a by-law prohibiting the playing of loud music or loud noise on their buses." Very good! Now just get that Spanish Students (I say Spanish 'cos they seem to be the loudest) to sit down (in the same seat as the person they want to talk to) and not 3 or 4 to a seat, and not stand upstairs shouting at each other from every corner of the bus. Like the poor fella (Stephen) who tells us he was kicked off the bus at Christmas for singing (obviously he was being too loud!!) GET RID OF THE STUDENTS FOR BEING TOO LOUD. And if your bus seems to be always full when it gets to you.. have you ever considered that 47 Spanish students got on at the stop before yours. Why can't Dublin bus run a seperate service for the students. 2 Buses in the morning to get them all to there schools and 2 in the evening to get them home. Then they can only annoy each other. (Although I suppose Dublin Bus can't cope with it's schedule at the moment let alone run another couple of buses a day!) So sorry everyone. It seems from about March to October we're just going to have to put up with screaming foreigners.

At least all they do is talk loudly. There are far worse characters on the buses than students. Try getting a 75 some night and you'll know what I mean.
What really annoys me, and it's only a little thing, is the fact that dublin bus make no attempt to educate Summer passengers on our buses what to do on the bus. How often have you seen tourists waiting at the middle doors because they actually believe the EXIT signs, or maybe expecting the driver to stop when they ring the bell, only to be told the bell does not work?
Then there are drivers who seem to try and piss off visitors to our city on purpose. I heard of an incident last summer where a driver tried to charge a french couple a fine because they had gone past their stop (into a £1.05 zone on an 80p ticket). The s**t thing was, they missed their stop because he had refused to stop there.

good idea Martina!
let's kick all the screaming foreigners off so the Irish junkies, drunkards and fare-dodgers can have the service all to themselves.
ever been outside of Dublin, love?

Yes dear, I have been outside Dublin... I actually only moved to Dublin about 3 years ago. At 7:30 or 8:00 in the morning when you've only fallen out of bed and all you want is a quiet journey in to work, I don't think there are too many junkies/drunkards on the bus.. but what you do have is a double decker full of screaming foreign students.
All I'm saying is can Dublin bus (or even the respective schools) not do something about the huge increase in SUMMER TRAVELLERS on the routes. They know there are more traveller (why not put on more buses??)
No need to get narky love!
