As I said elsewhere....

If they tried that here in London the bus driver would have told the trumpet guy to shut up or get off and the legitimate passengers would have complained that their bus was delayed.

The daily mail would have a story describing the bus company as evil because it made passengers late so they could celebrate their own bus driver's birthday with flowers and champagne that were bought on expenses... and anyway, look at him, he's obviously not from "'round 'ere".

The RMT would threaten to strike unless equivalent birthday celebrations were secured for all their members as well as a 5% pay increase.

The trumpet player was something odd, but I'm guessing from the second the first woman started singing what I assume is a happy birthday song the message would have got through to the driver. It also seems like most of the passengers on the bus were in on it.
It'd never happen over here for many reasons, but still I don't work in London so feel free to send an orchestra on my bus. It's empty most of the time and I'm pretty much always late :o)-
