(26 Mar 2014, 6:50 am)Dan Apologies - I was meant to do it on Sunday but I had to go out so didn't have time to do it.
I really am concentrating on getting my coursework finished this week (deadline for a lot of it is next week), so I'm going to put it back by a week again - it will be updated this Sunday instead.
As you'd expect, educational commitments have to prioritise.

(26 Mar 2014, 7:31 am)Dan I'm just terrible for leaving everything to last minute, haha.
I leave the news for Sundays because that's usually my designated day off any sort of school work and there's not enough hours in the day any other day of the week, so if something ruins the routine... Screwed!

I was looking for something completely different, but stumbled across this.
Having never needed to use the services mentioned, I have no opinion or experience of them.
What was quite humorous, was that despite the bad experiences of passengers, quotes from councillors and a wish to return to previous services, the guy from GNE insists that what they are offering, is better than the previous operator.
Prior to Christmas, I came across a similar story, outlining passengers concern and quotes from them, explaining bad experiences on the three services mentioned
Apart from the GNE rep apparently being blind to some of the issues put to him, what else do passengers need to see or do, so that their opinions (even if it is just some) are listened too, acknowledged and/or accepted, so that changes are made?
No matter how much money is spent on buses, that can accommodate wheelchairs and pushchairs (I am sure the previous operator would have sorted out a full fleet of accessible buses by now), unless passenger needs, wants or desires are accepted (even in part), then I am not sure there is any point in a rep attending these meetings.
Are there any regular passengers from those services on the forum, who could share their views?

(26 Mar 2014, 5:33 pm)aureolin Moderation note: Passenger Focus moved here, as it wasn't GNE specific.
Slip roads around the Galleries on the A182 Washington Highway are closed for roadworks, which means the x1 will be diverted off.
No idea if they are using the A1231 or A195 (or both).
Saw a 58 in Leam Lane est belching out black earlier on.
It was dark, so didn't see fleet number.

(25 Mar 2014, 8:51 pm)Andreos Constantopolous Agree, the whole depot looked empty when I went past a few times earlier this evening and on Sunday afternoon too.
Noticed there was a space missing where 4931 had been living tonight, but not on Sunday.
In other news, it appears that the 887 on a morning, could share the same board as the 937 on an evening - the 'Eat, sleep, play and smell of foist' Trident has appeared on both today.
Saw two Versa's on the 34 running in pairs down Pelaw Bank tonight too.
