Clifton Hignett III Well said Ken. But unfortunately it's the miserable and rude ones whom we remember most. One time, one driver was rude enough to interrupt my performance on the 537 going to Shields from Hylton Castle. I was in the middle of crooning, swooning and serenading the passengers on the bus with my silver tongue and along he came and stopped it all. Told me that I had to sit down and no loud music was allowed on the bus. I remember that incident badly!

Clifton Hignett III I was singing Sinatra at the time. It would have been an impossible dream to drop those puns to the driver. Besides, I had a ferry to catch at shields. Once across the other side of the water, I had another journey to make. I had to catch the 313 to New York, New York near Whitley Bay not the one in America which was previously known as New Amsterdam.

Ken is trying it on with Andrea Louise Watson - a post or two down.
Andrea Louise Watson
I'm trying to plan my Daughters college journey from Peterlee to Gateshead College. I don't know whether it will work out better for her to get a keycard or a get around day ticket, as she'll need to get 2 buses. The X10 to Gateshead Metro Interchange and then the Q1 from there to the college. Which option will be best and what are the prices for returns? One last question, could a X9 return be used on an X10 bus or are returns only for use on same exact bus and route. Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, confused Mum.

Ian Hignett She will need to have a get-around key card to get the get-around ticket anyway. Has she had a key card before and has it expired?

Andrea Louise Watson I've got her a key card just the other day but haven't topped it up yet.

Ian Hignett OK, If she is under 18 she will qualify for reduced price single tickets at peak times and 90p singles off-peak, however, having said that the 90p singles are not available on X9/X10, I think the reduced rate is £2.20 single. She would still be entitled to the Get-around day ticket at £3.65 which will cover the X10 and Q1. If she is over 18 and it is a student get-around card she will still be entitled to the £3.65 day ticket (and all other tickets available) but not 90p singles.

Dear Go North East.
I would like to make a suggestion about this wall and the Meerkat man known to many on here.
Ian Hignett with his short stern replies IS NOT A CUSTOMER SERVICE PROFESSIONAL! He's a bus spotter. Is this the image you want for your company? He is rude and dismissive. It is not a good image for a big multi national company to have.
This forum should be closed out of hours so people can't abuse it. Either that or I suggest you put Ian Hignett on a training course and pay the bloke a wage and get him in line
Thank You

RE: Anything and Everything :) - Adrian - 06 Sep 2013
I'd love to know who's doing this, as they're clearly reading our board and the gripes against the way GNE let Hignett, Clifford and co run wild. The funny thing is that GNE won't be able to ban them, as they're doing what they're doing, but certainly not over stepping the mark. How could they justify banning them but not Hignett and Clifford?
