£3 Megabus fare to Sheffield - I thank you Big Grin £8.50 for a return trip (over four days). Less said about the hotel costs the better
The rain.

It has caused my school to flood meaning it has had to close for the day Smile

So much for the flood defense they have put in (mind, its at the top of a hill rather than the bottom).

Lucky Bugger. Mine flooded while we were inside so we eventually got sent home, this was in July 2014!
I thought I needed most of the Lambton Worm Versas, but I've just found out I all 4.

Fine, it was a 'someone else pay the bill lunch' [emoji1]

A good meal out with good friends (and yes, I've been home since 9). Laugh a minute

Sounds like a superb night out, glad you enjoyed every minute of it.
After all the issues with my laptop over the summer and autumn, I've managed to get myself up-to-date with photo uploading on flickr. I do therefore apologise to anyone on here who follows my photostream for the effectively 'spamming' from me today Blush

Oh, and of course, this shot from Wednesday (considering this is one of only three photos of this exceptional working)

Looking forward to seeing 400 photos taken in Stockton.
Nice pic x400
Got some new pillows yesterday, great improvement in comfort from the two I've now ditched which were as flat as pancakes
Had a canny day out with Bazza and Paul.

563 should be on Asda Shuttles with 8260 on CB1.

Correct but 563 was indeed on the CB1 today though.

First time doing our S1 Teesside Park shuttle bus today! Shame it wasn't very busy this afternoon. On the plus side I did clear 2807 for cabbage this morning, on the 7s.

Oh, gawd. More giggles.

Haha well he was close. Definitely some cabbages in Stockton judging by the state of some people!
Just been reading a few websites and learnt that one of my local routes in Bristol, the 72, will be receiving 2 ADL E400MMC Virtual Electric buses. It would have been good if they bought 4 E400MMCs as there are 4 x 72 boards, however it will be good to see something other than darts running the service. Not doing too bad for investment in the Horfield area, first of all new Streetdecks for the 70/71, then these new E400MMCS. The 73 has B9s so can't complain about them  Tongue .

Because you sent it in... lol How much do you get paid?

Steven Hodgson's Haymarket/Eldon Square shots are in every issue, I'll make sure that I cancel my monthly subscription to that drivel before it gets despatched....
