Some of the crowd, including the one with the 'cockney accent', are not employed by the company in any capacity. They may have family members who work for the company but, like yourself, they are enthusiasts with no more authority than you.


The lad with the cockney accent was ok, It was just a random enthusiast ( not going to name people ) though I think he post's on here once every 3 years.

Had a so-called enthusiast give me the one-fingered salute, and another covered their face when I tried to get a photo.

The joys.

The only reason I done that is because you are always a dick to me, so I thought I'd give you a taste of your own medicine.

Always happens to me that, nowt worse. The worst is when people get in the way, when I was in Berwick last Saturday some bloke stopped right in front of me when I was snapping a bus, then he went back from where he came from!!!

I have also had a unsuccessful photo trip this afternoon, went to Darlington Town Centre to photograph a Sapphire 7 Enviro 400 on the 19 as there has been reportings of them on the 19 today, when I got there Darlington depot got their act together and did what they were supposed to do and allocated a Solo! I was furious when 2849 appeared on Northgate [emoji35]

Ha'way man, lads. Can't be chewed reading arguments. If you need to have it out, find somewhere else instead of this forum.

Can't. He's blocked me on all forms of social media  Big Grin

He can happily drop me a PM if he wants to give the rest of his opinions.

I blocked you because I am sick of you giving my crap.

That's all I'm saying, because I'm sure the Admins (and member's too!) don't want to see argument's on the Forum.

And the fed up and tired teenager in me cannot be bothered with this nonsense too :p

As long as this is the last thing said about the earlier issue. Otherwise the thread will be locked for a bit.
What's bloody freaking me out, today?

A) landline is down, so I have no phone or internet
B) what should be my EE sim is registering as a number I don't recognise from an unknown provider.

It's as plausible an explanation as any as to why my landline and mobile numbers go wrong on the same day

Edit. That's one solved. All numbers with our code are down.

Husband gets a busy signal when he tries to phone my EE number. I can text and ring out with it, though. Oddness.
So annoying when you take a nice photo and the destination blinds doesn't come out in the photo, to make matters worse today's failure was a rare working in the form of 7440 on the 6. Doesn't matter what settings I put the camera in I fail miserably [emoji34]

Bring back roller blinds! [emoji14] [emoji1]

Change your shutter speed and it shouldn't be a problem? Sometimes auto sport gets lazy, and shoots at 1000/1 or 1250/1, whereas more than half that should suffice.

Even I put it on low shutter speeds it sometimes fails. I probably should have put a low shutter speed but I didn't really have time as I had to cross the road and shoot it between traffic, also I thought I'd get at least one shot with the blind on but even with 10+ frames I failed.

EDIT: I have one very dim shot of the blind.
I'm sick of people talking crap about me behind my back!

Said it before.
Revel in it and enjoy it.

Revel in the fact they are showing an interest in you and are unable to get through the day without thinking or talking about you.

Don't let other people's insecurities and obsessions upset you.

Just ignore it, don't be bothered about what other people think. They are too much of a coward to say it to your face by the sounds of it. Smile
I'm sick of Streetlites. If I worked it out correctly, the 47 from here to Toon will be 5409 Sad

I've spent a good seven hours on one today... So you're in no position to complain.  Tongue

Yeah but you were probably getting paid for it

Thank you both for the advice, it is much appreciated. Wink

That's true!

To be fair, 5420 wasn't too bad..!

Tongue, are you putting the stop announcements on or testing them?

Testing the Next Stop Announcements round the routes of the 20/20A/X20 and N56!

That'll be fun, are they set up like the ones on the Red Arrow?
