Bus crashing into wall 'like earthquake'
WHEN Paul and Leah Jeffreys heard a loud, prolonged grinding sound they feared it was an earthquake and ran to get their sleeping children.
In fact it was a bus, which had ground along the granite wall at the front of their house, leaving broken stone and broken glass in its wake.
While the Jeffreys' accept accidents happen, they were frustrated that CT Plus took three days to get in touch afterwards – despite numerous phone calls by the couple – and then only after enquiries were made by the Guernsey Press.
'We appreciate that it will not get fixed overnight, but we are disappointed,' Mrs Jeffreys said.
'We had no phone calls from CT Plus, even asking about our wellbeing.'
It was only during an interview with the Guernsey Press on Friday afternoon that CT Plus operations manager Lee Murphy called to apologise to the Jeffreys for the accident.
The couple were sat in their living room at 8.42pm last Tuesday, with their three young sons asleep upstairs, when the number 93 service from Town to L'Eree hit the front wall of their property on Route de Pleinmont.
