3962 on the 21...heating on full whack. Beyond unbearable. Driver just shrugged shoulders and said he was cold
Right... I'll keep this brief.
Being told by a Transdev driver that I wasn't allowed to film/take photos on the bus and that my camera had to be out of sight. I wanted to film a video.
Leeds being gridlocked
As result of said gridlock, had to walk some of the way to the train station and was pushed for time to buy train tickets which I wasted trying to buy a single ticket for my specific journey from the VTEC touch screens, which I couldn't buy but was still a option on the touch screens, also options on these can only be selected by practically punching the screen, so had to get ticket from ticket desk which cost me a small fortune although I got value for money as we got diverted via Castleford between Leeds and York due to trespassers.
I have significantly shortened this rant!
Littlun has a taster morning at his new school, so we're doing a trial run on the bus.
Can't say I'm impressed with the timekeeping of the 6.

Its normally not too bad, from what I see, but Church Street can be a nightmare during morning and evening rush.
Estate Agents.
After much reluctance on my part, I've decided renting is no longer the cool thing and I should buy...
I loathe estate agents. Completed house move no. 10 last month and I'm yet to deal with an estate agent who isn't a total womble. There's a special place in hell for Bridgefords in particular.

10?! I've had to deal with one, and that is more than enough for me.
The most irritating thing I found was the constant phone calls. Not so much that they had to ring me, but that they were calling me for information that they already had, but they had no self organisation.

Well 10 includes moving as part of the family home - I've done 8 moves 'myself', keep telling myself it'll be the last one! I'm with you on the needless phone call front, plus their latest trick of selling your contact detail approx 9000 utility companies who then hound you for 6 months - despite never giving them permission to do so.

Its mortgage brokers you need to watch out for. They try every trick in the book when submitting mortgage applications.

Lalala I'm not listening!
Putting our house on the market, soon. Nerve wracking to say the least.

Everything is alright now, I've got a few cuts and bruises from what happened but nowt too bad...
Someone on the 40 called me out for not being normal as I wanted to record a video of the demo E200 MMC, bad enough getting through some days without people reminding you of the fact that you are not normal.

Seems like I ain't able to do anything with this camera of mine based on the going's on in recent few weeks and months. [emoji19]
Today is a day I totally want to forget, especially after my patience was pushed beyond the limit in Newcastle by people walking into me and giving me looks of disgust in return. I totally lost it in the end and had to spend a good 30-40 minute's out of the way trying to calm myself down as I was REALLY angry.
Woken up by thunder....
Good morning British weather!

I know right - we never get away with nice weather, even if i'm not a fan of it.
Hopefully it calms down a bit as I have a bit of walking to do.

You are perfectly normal, for you
Honestly, what IS normal? The human species is not one uniform mass save for a few "not normal" people. It'd be a bit bloody boring if we were all the same (though less tedious if some people, like the persn who called you out, weren't so damned rude.)
Trespassers on the railways.
Second time this month I've been delayed owing to trespass incidents [emoji35]
GNE 8336... is making a very annoying beeping noise..
More concerned than annoyed but... My phone is playing random audio and I'm doing nothing to make it do this, sounds like a advert for a action film or something like that.
Bit creeped out and unsure what to do.

It might be an advert inside your mobile phones browser doing it. Try closing each tab individually?

I don't think the browser was open at the points this happened, first time it happened, I only had the Tapatalk app open and same again last night when it happened except I also had the music app open and playing but there is no ad's or anything like that which would suddenly stop a song for that.
Today's annoyance is the state I've let me get my teeth into, broke part of a tooth this morning and now worrying that it may be have to go soon, I've already lost one and I'm now worried about losing anymore, don't really want loads of teeth missing at the age of 23.
I was giving the car a bit fuel earlier on and chatting to the woman behind the counter.
There were a load of newspapers on the counter and I noticed the headline of a certain paper. It was referring to the news of charges against ex Police Officers based in South Yorkshire.
It turns out, that they're giving 'that' paper away today. I was polite to the member of staff when she offered me a copy.
After the headlines at the time and the accusations made - to give a paper away free of charge on a day when they're covering the story again (all be it with a different agenda) - nah, not for me.
