And then God made the buses

It must come from living on a bus route.

Today when I asked the kids in key stage 1 (aka the infants) at St James's School in an assembly on the creation story what God did after he had made the sky, the sea, the dry land, the birds, the fishes, the animals and human beings (I was thinking of God having a rest), one lad put his hand up and said 'He made the buses.'

I like the inventiveness of that addition to the creation story.

There is sadly no mention of buses as such in Genesis chapter one, but God did make provision for them when he made people, for uniquely among his creatures, men and women, like God, can make things.Such as buses.
