Depends on the bus company, and also the individual driver's discretion. So you might get lucky, you might not.

Ive taken a surfboard on a bus in london, in rush hour. Wasnt a lot of fun, but at least the bus driver took me where I wanted to go (the airport).

Aye, if it's a shortboard you can almost always blag it. Just tell 'em that the board will fit anywhere you can and then just plonk it in front of where you're sitting.
