Make sure you just do bus-spotting, no trains at 'Donny', Bazza.

With it being an area renowned for it's railway history, it obviously has a huge outturn of train spotters at Doncaster Station - some retired who do it every day for hours on end, these are known as 'the Donny veg'.

From what I've picked up - they are a bunch of twats.
Unnecessarily waking up at this hour.

I will be doing bus spotting there anyways have only used the station once to go to Hull that was back in September saw a few train spotters didn't speak to them as I was catching a connecting train to Newcastle
The police helicopter... AGAIN!!!!
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This time at 11-ish last night!
My parents have gone out and left the key in the door I have the key for so I am now sat outside waiting for them to come back and if I can't ring them I could be stick here for an hour.
The ghastly odour from a man who named himself 'Metallica' on the X66 earlier. Plenty free seats, but he decided to sit next to me. All the way from Darlo to Stockton.

As is always the way.

Still sat on the step outside my house locked out.

Happened to me a few times...

I now always make sure I leave my bedroom open very slightly, I have been known to climb throgh my room if I aint got a key, key left in door or when my mam was in bed after working nights...

The best one was when I came back from Scotland in September, got back to Murton, my mam was expecting me back, as was my sister, what my sister didn't expect was me not going to get a key from my mam at work, but I got the 24(as it was then) straight back to the Mallard at Seaham, I did not actually know if my sis was actually in the house, so seeing that my window was open, climbed up on the extension roof and got through the window, my dog was going mental and my sisters first words were 'Good job I didnt have a bat or weapon, I would've fucking let you have it, I thought you might have been a burglar' what narked her as well was someone from Murton had committed murder the same day(although the murder happened in Willington or Crook)...

Knowing my sister, if she had a weapon at hand, she woulda used it on me Big Grin

Was on the 29 earlier, group of teenagers got on Castletown, as the bus was going up North Hylton Road one of the lads farted, the silent type, the dead rat up the arse type...

One of those farts where you think 'for gods sake don't breath through your nose'

The Third Reich would have been proud of that gas output.

Was funny when his mate said 'Fuck me, you cant fart like that on a bus'

I personally thinking 'check your kegs for skid marks' or to make sure you aint followed through and shit your kegs
A teenage girl on the X21 before...
"Haven't we already been here? I swear to god if the driver turns right I'll fucking stab him!"
(That annoys me!!)

Guess the place???

Two annoyances today!

'Facebook Android Beta' was launched in November 2013, with the intention of users directly reporting to Facebook to improve the application. With almost 500,000 users giving feedback and contributing by making Facebook aware of bugs and glitches, you'd expect that Android users would have the perfect Facebook application by now, yes?

Half an hour ago, Facebook for Android beta version 25.0.0.1.30 was released. Whilst I cannot yet download this version of the application as it has not appeared in the Play Store, my main gripe (which has been the same since the Beta version was first released) is that we still cannot set the 'Most Recent' news feed as our default feed. This has been reported by many users time and time again on each and every update, yet it still hasn't been fixed. Others report that, when you do switch to the 'Most Recent' feed (which requires at least two 'clicks' before you get to it), there are posts which are missing. Many report that they are now using 'XDA Facebook Browser' as an alternative, given that Facebook do not listen to their users.
Back at uni tomorrow - please kill me!

Had two tests on the last week of school, no way did I do good!!

As a result of not being myself, I didn't get much revision done...you can't really when your lying in bed trying to sleep off your cold!

I've basically fucked them up.

They were my End of Year 9 tests, and I was that baffled by some of the questions (neither subjects are strong points of mine these days!) - having to miss some out or put stupid answers so I didn't look like I didn't have the faintest clue!

I've got tomorrow off, so I'm dreading Tuesday!

I'm in Set 1, and I will no doubt be worst in the class with my Science teacher hating me for no apparent reason other than I can't understand Science he'll go ape!

I am dead.

This will have a knock on affect on my GCSEs, and I'll get thrown down a few sets!! Maths and Science - fucked up for good.

Set 2 here we come!!! - in with the stupid babies!!

Are you sure they were End of Year 9 tests? - If they were, you could say to him that you were ill and found it hard to concentrate, and ask to resit the test? Might be possible, although if the science teacher is a dickhead he may not let you.
It seems a bit odd having End of Year 9 tests this early, but then again we should be picking options soon. Thankfully we haven't had any tests yet, but I'm sure we will.
I'm sure your grades and stuff won't be fucked up, and if you do end up in a set lower than you are meant to, argue against it?

I'll be glad when we pick these bloody options and they are over and done with. I'm sick of hearing about them, and we have two, two hour long opening evenings, which there is no way I am going to, as they will be a complete waste of time. Stuff that I already know etc.

My science teacher is a nightmare - I just don't like him and he doesnt like me.

He said if 'you get 1 sublevel below your baseline' you'll be doing it again. Err.....bit unfair?

I should have been put in Set 2 ages ago - but everything is paired up. I'm better at Maths than Science, but if I've failed both I'm finished....

They just stretch them out for GCSE - making us do the same things over and over and over and over again!!!!!!

One reason why school is a nightmarish wasteland of zombies and awful teaching staff!!!

I just want to scream into a pillow!!! Angry

If you get a whole level I could understand, but a sub-level below your target is a joke!
Ask to move down a set, and say the work is too hard.

My school doesn't work like that unfortunatley - they monitor you on absolutely everything! You can't make a request and they'll do it for you, they need to see evidence, have meetings with your parents, etc...Sad

Anyway, I better stop here with my rant. I'll get SSC or excluded or something for 'an unnecessary outburst on social media'.

One girl put a post on Facebook saying her maths teacher was an idiot and she 'was she fuck' going to his afterschool detention...excluded for two days! Huh  Dodgy

My school doesn't either. I'd have to have a meeting if I wanted to move sets.
Will the school look at this forum? lol

Someone will see it, it always happens!

They are absolutely unbelievable with their punishments. Two days suspension for being irritated and posting about it on social media...ha'way!

If you were at the world of work, you could get sacked for social media outbursts....
One of my teachers accidentally followed me on Twitter and didn't bother unfollowing me. I was quite an irregular user before, but now there's practically no chance I use it.

I agree with Mr Citaro here, social media outbursts can result in harsh measures against you in a job, while it may seem harsh from a school, then it shows you will learn the hard way to prepare for the big wide worls
I better just stop here.

Thanks all though! Smile
Hoping to upload some photos from the other day but I can't find that little cable thing to import photos to my desktop! Angry
