Bizarre Lothian Buses Twitter conversation '˜goes viral'

A bizarre Twitter conversation has gone viral.

In a post, that perhaps perfectly sums up Scottish banter, Stephen Burnett tweeted the group saying: “Hey @on_lothianbuses one of your drivers called me a f***y last night.”

Clearly looking to resolve the issue, Lothian Buses replied saying: “Sorry to hear that Stephen. If you can tell me which bus this was on, I can report this for you.”

Another simply wrote: “Funniest thing I’ve seen on here the day”
