Haha I would actually quite like to go to the lakes when the weather is really wet one day and get some bus photos in the rain as I quite like seeing photos of buses in the rain, although I ain't the biggest fan of being out in that weather. Doing a lakes bus outing next week then probably again the following week providing the Volvo's are in service on the 599. I am currently not having fun on the train to Middlesbrough, primary school trip on board and to make matters even worse, got some fully grown adults who are even more loud and annoying than the children, having Twinkle Twinkle Little Star shouted right in your ears by a bloke with a loud voice has certainly given me a terrible headache, ears will probably start bleeding next! What's annoying you today? V4 - TEN 6083 - 06 Jul 2017 Had Sky Q installed in my new flat on Sunday and asked the engineer if I needed to be in yesterday (5/7/17) and they said I didn’t need to be in for the broadband and phone line activation which was due to come on yesterday, I then get up yesterday morning and have a message from BT Openreach to say I was not in when they called at 8am. I had no notification that they would be coming to the flat as even my order tracking on Sky’s website said I did not need to be in when it was activated, so have put in a complaint to get them to come out as quickly as possible as I am due to move on Saturday and will not move until the broadband and phone line have been activated. They have put it down as a priority so hopefully it will be sorted by Saturday. Sent from my iPhone 7+ using Tapatalk RE: What's annoying you today? V4 - BusLoverMum - 11 Jul 2017 If I'm going to pick one solitary thing out of the blanket term of EVERYTHING, it has to be the fact that I have spent over half an hour on the phone and scouring the web, trying to track down a copy of an old marriage certificate and I am not a single step closer to obtaining it. I've ended up filling in a web form email and from experience, web form emails just disappear into the ether never to be found again. Just one more bit of evidence that I should never have married the t... RE: What's annoying you today? V4 - Rapidsnap - 12 Jul 2017 Yesterday went to get tyres on my car repaired / replaced. Went to go out in car this morning to find that one of the replaced tyres (rear driver side) had decided to deflate. Headed to tyre place and nearly had a berk in a merc crash into me at A19 / Tynemouth Rd roundabout when they decided they didn't have to obey the give way to the right rule. Get to tyre place and discovered that the sealent wasn't properly applied to rim, but they sorted out free of charge. Go pick up wor lass, do a few errands for her, then head to Saltmeadows to see if anything was worth photoing. There was but due to roadworks I couldn't get parked and all the parking bays around the S bend were full. Ended up spending most the afternoon driving around aimlessly. Did however manage to get a photo of Arriva Tempo 1311. Headed to Grangetown in Sunderland to get some Black Cats to find that I was too late to get decent shots as the sun had moved too far around. Decided to head to South Shields, then as I was going around a roundabout in Hendon, a wire /cable wallgrab punctured my tyre (The Driver Side Rear again). Although the tyre didn't lose it's air, the thing stuck out so much I would have been an idiot to drive it, so it was into the sports centre car park to change my tyre (fortunatley I had sorted my spare yesterday too). More aimless driving about, and in hindsight thinking I'm pretty bored of the local bus scene at the minute. RE: What's annoying you today? V4 - Ambassador - 18 Jul 2017 Currently stuck on 6140 as the X12 was running 6 minutes early. Checking the app, it's now ten minutes early into Gateshead! What's annoying you today? V4 - TEN 6083 - 21 Jul 2017 Openreach were supposed to come to my flat this morning to set up my fibre broadband and didn’t turn up and also British Gas were supposed to come this afternoon to install smart meters and never turned up, have rearranged with Sky for Openreach to come on Tuesday so they better come and will have to contact British Gas to ask why they didn’t show up so wasted an entire day for nothing as I was gonna go to Ashington for the X21/X22 launch in between appointments Sent from my iPhone 7+ using Tapatalk RE: What's annoying you today?

EDF cancelled my smart meter appointment 2 hours after they were due to arrive, so I got £30 credit on my account - make sure you follow it up and get some money credited onto your account. RE: What's annoying you today? V4 - Rapidsnap - 24 Jul 2017 Booked 20th August off a few months back with the intention of going to a bus event. Just discovered they've put me into work a shift without even phoning me or texting me to tell me. I found out by going onto my rota thing online to find that it had changed. What's annoying you today? V4 - TEN 6083 - 25 Jul 2017 Openreach supposed to come this morning to activate my broadband and phone and yet again haven’t turned up so been on phone to SkyHelpTeam to try to sort it out, got up at 6am as well as I had stuff to bring to the flat and gonna probably have to take some of if to my mams house. Getting rather sick of bringing my TV back and forwards now. Sent from my iPhone 7+ using Tapatalk What's annoying you today? V4 - Jimmi - 28 Jul 2017 Pee ignorant old couple attempted to shove their way past me as I was about to board the Scania / E400 demonstrator on the X24 in Sunderland, when I did set foot on the bus the woman was shoving past me from behind so they could get the front seats upstairs, a friend said the same happened to them in Newcastle a few hours later, I asked them if it was a woman in a red coat and sure enough the answer was yes, although he managed to stop them getting the front seats on his journey. Dare bet there would be absolute hell on if I did what they did Hope they try this with the wrong person and they get slaughtered for it, especially as I am pig sick of old people attempting this with me and have had some claiming that I have pushed in a queue when I haven't.
