The Route Masters: Running London's Roads

Sajjad Sharif - Bus Driver:
A bloke come on the bus. And he started screaming and shouting "We're going to hell. This is happening, that's happening. The world's falling apart." And he started scaring the other passengers. So I told him "Sit down quietly. We're not going to hell. We're going to Ilford."

[Sajjad is a Muslim. He is about to pray during a break between bus-driving shifts]

Sajjad Sharif - Bus Driver:
On a bus, which way do we pray? How do we know it's Mecca? So I turn around, wherever I am, you look out for a satellite dish. Couple of dishes over there. And whichever way they're facing, that's usually towards Mecca.
