The Char-à-banc and the Metaphysical
The char-à-banc was an early horse drawn or motor vehicle with rows of seats to carry passengers on tours. It might be best described as an early touring bus and often had a retractable roof so patrons could enjoy the "wind whistling through their hair" or small bugs in their mouths or up their noses.
The discovery of the char-à-banc proved to be an enlightening, somewhat metaphysical experience. Ok, well maybe not. I've just tried to make it sound more revelatory than it actually is, but I had you going for a moment, right?
We're Here looks at On the Buses today and the char-à-banc kind of qualifies as such.
