I shall photograph my local route 172 when I get the chance I tend to be more on the 188, 381 & 484 and I only work lates, if any of those are in your locality. Also drive the 343 but not if I can help it. What is it about the 343 that puts you off?

Mainly the poor attitude and rudeness of the passengers. I thought the 208 was bad when I used to drive that and then I came across the 343. The route itself isnt too bad a drive but the running time is very tight considering all the traffic delays (mainly at London Bridge and Elephant & Castle) that occur on a daily basis. Its just never a pleasant shift if its on the 343. I hardly ever get allocated a 343 nowdays, as I am sure they have gathered that I am more suited to the 188, 172, 381 & 484.

You'd hate the 109 then lol.

If you have a trident, then it will almost certainly be snapped/ridden haha Im always smiling. I nearly had 9747 yesterday but it was one operating number in front of mine. Tridents are rare on the 188 and only go oit if there are no other available buses. Also there are a few 188 drivers who are specially exempt from driving the Tridents due to medical reasons due to the cramptness of the cab and positioning of the pedals.

I'm still waiting patiently for an MMC to go out on the route as well, so if you would like to make that happen, that would be nice lol

As far as I am aware only 40, 415 and a couple of established spare drivers are type trained.
