(01 Mar 2016, 8:07 pm)DanPicken Alex Cromarty, he's more of a Train Enthusiast.

Unsurprisingly, Durham bus station has dozens, even over a hundred people in at a time. Some of them are not particularly nice. You may or may not know the names of those individuals. Statistically, you probably don't.

I tend to stand back and watch them get on with it (not unusual for the police to be around, late afternoon, which can become quite entertaining) but I tend to blend into the scenery better than a young guy and not get mouthed off at.

I hate Virgin Trains East Coast.

How can they close all of their first class lounges and not provide a temporary one for customers who have paid?

I'm currently sat in a waiting room that smells like piss and has the ISS idiot spraying shit on the seats and that.

They don't have a 1st class lounge at York. Can't ever remember there being one in York either. VTEC certainly haven't closed it.

All Nexus-secured miscellaneous workings are public services, and anyone can use them. Big Lugs is entitled to travel on the 939 service; indeed, I have done so many times before when I was his age. Although the primary intention of the services is to transport workers to/from the Team Valley, there's no reason why a child or a pensioner would not be able to travel on this service.

This is why Nexus-secured scholars services state "All Welcome" on the destination display, as Joe Bloggs could get on the bus if he so wished.

Best thing you can do is tell them to rap it in. I'll happily embarrass anyone making a racket in the quiet coach.

I really hate it when you help others but they give you nothing back for it!

One of the girls in my class asked for some info about a unit we're are doing so i did.... NOTHING, not even a thank you.

I asked for something.... nothing back.... think i'll stop.

It's daft but that's not the point!

Managed to drop the lense cover off my camera when I was in Ferryhill this afternoon, to make matters worse it rolled underneath a parked car so I had to lie down in the middle of the wet, dirty road in the market place and stretch my arm out to retrieve it.

Also the passenger in front of me on the 7 was pronouncing 'Ferryhill' as 'Fairyhill'
