Angry Birds Fight updated, today.
Everything wiped. Even my ID. I had a lovely orange ship, too.
Hours of my life I'll never get back. I might have to do some housework, or something.

Go to the GNE open day at the Riverside. I am sure big'un and little'un would love to have a ride through the bus wash and maybe get hubby to have a go at driving a bus!

I suggested that Husband go and drive a bus, as we know how much he loves driving.

Have a drive yourself too? I might even have a go haha.

It would be the first thing I ever drove if I did! (I'm so badly coordinated you really don't want me on the roads!)

I bet the kids would be killing themselves with laughter seeing you behind a wheel of a bus.

They'd learn some new words.
Heading south on the A1 around Team Valley this morning through the roadworks, had cruise set on the car for 40mph, all of a sudden I start flying past other traffic and realise the limit had dropped to 30mph. Never noticed the signs, not really prominent.
Just praying I'm not getting sent a ticket. I'll be more than gutted if I do
I hate average speed cameras.

Husband loves them
Some of the same technology did help pay our mortgage for a while, though, but put to better use, ie how long you can expect to be sat in this freakin' traffic.

That can justify your hubby liking them then!
Depends on the margin of allowence they've had. I've once went through them when they first started rather faster than expected didn't get a ticket because they had forgotten to turn them on. But last time I've went through them at speeds varying between 30 and 40. But it works out the average speed you go. I'm not sure if the cruise control actually does true 40mph or in reality just a little bit below 40mph.

I think Cruise sets it at whatever actual speed you're doing, which is read out in km/h by my trip computer. The actual speedo needle seems to sit just below the actual figure.
See what happens anyway...
Just washed and tumble dried my Key smartcard, hoping it can still be read otherwise I'm screwed for the rest of the week.

Your Xperia will have NFC. Enable it it and try and read your key card. If it responds, then the card is fine.

Sweet, didn't know NFC could do that.
Edit : Just tried it and it flashed up "NFC read error." Is that good or bad?

That's good. It's a read error because the data means nothing to the reader. The fact it's worked means the card is still transmitting, so you should have no bother on the bus.

I have a splitting headache and I've just accidentally kneed the hard plastic bit on the back of a bus seat.
Seeing a driver on the 7 getting grief from some low life piece of scum because the charging points are "turned off" which of course actually means they aren't working. Not the first time it's happened and it wouldn't surprise me if it's the same "person" if you can call him that!

99% of the time these charge points have been unintentionally turned off by a actual passenger using an after market charging cable that's not fit for use and trips the circuit.

I'd believe that if some of them had ever worked.

GNE's all worked when new - I tested them out of interest when programming the systems I oversee!

I have only used them twice, once on GNE 6082 (which worked better than in my house) and ANE 7522 (whose were a bit rubbish)

7522 has a serious problem with its power sockets. They work, but they suck power from the device, and has done since delivery.
I love the idea of vampire power sockets.
My Rover used to do that to my friends phone lol.
If this damned X12 had shown up on the tracker, I'd have known that it would be late enough to give me time to find a loo.
Just need to cross my legs all the way from Stockton to Durham.
Just arrived home after being sent home from school after being scolded, been to a walk-in and I have a third degree burn
