Lucky Numbers 9 and 15 Come My Way At Piccadilly Circus

Lucky Numbers 9 and 15 Come My Way At Piccadilly Circus

It was a reasonable nice day in London on Saturday, so I took the opportunity to go wandering around in the centre of London and take in some of the famous sites and basically enjoy the buzz of the city. Even though I’m living and I suppose working here, I know some people may question the working bit. I still feel like a tourist, especially at the weekends when I get the chance to go exploring.

I was enjoying myself hanging around at  Trafalgar Square  enjoying some of the entertainment provided by the various buskers and watching all the pretty girls going bye, even though the prettiest girl of them all wasn’t with me this time!  There was even a French street performer, that dare I say, wasn’t too bad at all and had a deservedly so big crowd enjoying the action.

I was just off to visit the Queen for a cup of tea and some cream cakes, when I was standing waiting to get across the road, when within the space of 1 minute, two of those iconic Routemaster busses came whizzing past me, the numbers 9 and 15. It was at this point that I had a vision and a dream that I had finally found a system for picking my winning Lotto numbers. I was going to be a millionaire in a matter of a few hours, all I had to do was wait for 4 more of those London Routemaster busses, to come past with different numbers on them.

But you know what busses are like in London, they all seem to arrive at the same time and then you are left standing for hours, for the next one to arrive. After about 15 minutes of waiting, I got bored of hanging around on my winning lottery numbers to turn up, so I thought f**k it, I can easily wait another week before I become a millionaire. I would do things the easy way later on, when I got home and Google It,  to find out the numbers of the Routemaster busses that were still in service.

My hands where shaking with anticipation and excitement,  this morning, (or maybe it was those 10 pints of Heineken I had on Saturday), as I searched on Google to  find out the numbers that  I needed to make myself rich beyond my wildest dreams. My dream lasted about 1 minute, thanks to the superb efficiency of Google. I had found the answer to my question and I didn’t like the answer.

There are currently only two routes left in service that use the famous Routemaster busses. You guessed it, the number 9 from Royal Albert Hall to Aldwych and the number 15 from Trafalgar Square to Tower Hill. But I’m still not too desponded I have two lucky numbers so far and all I have to do is find four more! All In need is a another vision!
