Sleeping In Buses: Not Just For Tramps

Buzzing trendies rolling around in their own sick, bag ladies...

Living on buses has traditionally been a 'short-term' prospect for most Londoners, until now. DDL (http://www.doubledeckerliving.com/) have just bought up a fleet of 'retired' Leyland Olympians. Incredibly these aren't used Lancastrian condoms, they're red double decker buses and they're being converted into houses. What's the point? I'm not sure. Isn't it very thin inside? Yes. But just imagine the fun you'd have telling people you lived on a bus? You could charge friends a 'fare' to come and visit. You could even tell them to stop smoking every 3 seconds using placards and recorded announcements.

A whole man or 5 pygmies can be squeezed onto each bus. The kitchen/lounge has a TV/DVD player and each sleeping area luxuriously features a single bed, lockable storage and 'a window'. I'm pretty sure these houses aren't really prisons masked as buses, but the target market of 'key workers struggling to get onto the property ladder' is nothing sort of suspicious.
