(29 Dec 2014, 2:01 pm)ArrivaNE_7522 Aye, I noticed that. The 19 normally enters Ashington with about 5 ENCTS pass holders and a couple of fare-paying passengers. When it goes along Milburn Road it normally picks up pass holders going into Ashington. Most of the time it leaves Ashington empty.

Why the neighbours feel the need it's okay to sprawl a van that they have hired to do a job for them - across our three-car drive?!
What's the point in hiring a guy to do a job for you if you can't accommodate him? Don't let him park on my drive - it's fucking rude! And, also, don't just let him put his equipment all over our drive when he can do it easily on yours! You scruffy tramps, you shouldn't even be living in the house you're in!!
And, finally, don't take the mick by having a cuppa and chatting away on our drive when it's quite clear I'm sitting in the living room reading a book and watching you!!!
It's trespassing. It's illegal.

Just curious - have you missed the plural off videos, or is it the series from the 80's that The Baldy Man and Rab C Nesbitt came from?
Used to enjoy that and The Real McCoy back in the day.

The shutter that covers the lense on my camera is not wanting to open so every time I have to turn it back on again I have to jam it open with my fingernails which means I'm getting finger marks on the lense.
Only had it five months too.

(29 Dec 2014, 1:58 pm)Dan I'm afraid your 90p isn't going to contribute a great deal to the running costs of the service...You do know 90p goes a long way...
It's hardly a massively profitable route to begin with, when drivers are on normal wages, never mind £18 - £19 an hour...

OAPs that think the world owe them a favour. Seems to have been one of those days for me today, where they've insisted on irritating me or getting in my way.
First of all on the 2A this morning. Old wife trying to tear a strip off the driver for being late, and simply would not be told that it was running to a Saturday timetable. The driver pretty much flipped after a couple mins or arguing, went and got a timetable, and put it in her face. She continued to argue when sat down and he was in his cab, and they were still bickering by the time I got off on Chester Road. Unbelievable.
Second is an old bloke at Heworth, who thinks I'm giving him grief, cause I told him to get out the bus shelters with his cigarette. He did eventually, but wanted to argue the toss first, and felt that I was being 'disrespectful'. In hindsight, I should have whipped my camera out, and Nexus would have been over in a shot.
And last but not least, the two old women who decided they want to play musical chairs at a snails pace, but meanwhile, the driver wanted to be away before I could get past them. I'm sure they think they'll get a nosebleed if they get more than 3 rows of seats back.

(31 Dec 2014, 1:52 pm)Jimmi Isn't smoking in ALL bus shelters illegal these days, I've seen no smoking signs in places like Ferryhill and on my local bus stop, yet there is always people still do it I had to stand outside the shelter in Ferryhill the other day and they kept giving me evil looks.
I know what you mean about them playing musical chairs, I nearly went flying the other day as I couldn't get set down and the driver pulled away from the stop. Also I was having difficulties getting upstairs on 3825 yesterday as some kid was stood on the stairs and their was few seats downstairs so I had to go up, he did get out of the way but it meant less time for me to get up the stairs as I was the last one to get on and then my bag got caught on the handrail getting up the stairs.

One day it will be you aureolin. Looks like Fozz is already on his way with that grey hair of his!
Mind, had one yesterday - she pushed in between two friends at a bus stop.
The first friend got on and sat down near the front.
The OAP, decided to sit next to her - despite other seats being available.
The two friends had to talk over/around the OAP for the duration of the trip.
