(18 Oct 2014, 10:25 pm)Marcus Basically, here's what I've got;
We have 25 hours a week, and we get....
4 Hours of English (Mandatory)
4 Hours of Maths (Mandatory)
6 Hours of Science (Mandatory)
1 Hour of R.E. (Mandatory)
2 Hours of ????? (Language)
2 Hours of ????? (Humanity)
2 Hours of ?????
2 Hours of ?????
2 Hours of ?????
I have two career paths that I'm currently seriously considering - one is a Humanities Teacher (History, Geography, R.E. etc), which would require mostly the humanities.
The other is some sort of Manager for GNE, which I would need a Business Management degree or something, so Business & Economics, and possibly Media.
So, with a language totally unrelated, and 4 others to pick for, I would say History and Geography, then Business & Economics and Media.
I'm really stumped....

(18 Oct 2014, 10:39 pm)Marcus Which languages do you do? I get Spanish & French, we WERE going to get German this year - but for some reason they bailed....I've got no idea, like!
I mean, Germany is the superpower of Europe. No offence, but what is French going to do for me?! When I asked one of the languages teachers, I mean, I seriously asked her why we weren't getting German and why French got priority - and she said it was because the Queen could speak French, before laughing!
I honestly wish we got German, but personally I'm really enjoying Spanish at the minute - and in my school it's the most popular language at GCSE.

Here is what i get:
3 hours of Spanish
3 hours of Maths
4 hours of English
4 hours of Science
1 hour of core PE (not GCSE or BTEC)
2 hours of History
3 hours of BTEC Business
3 hours of Graphics
2 hours of RE
The number of hours also equates to the number of lessons per week of each subject. However, once per week, we miss a lesson due to PSHE - it rotates so one week it may be lesson 5 of one day then the next week it will be 1st of the next then 2nd etc.

(20 Oct 2014, 6:20 pm)Adam There's 4-way controlled traffic lights/roadworks at Deckham, causing delays for all buses travelling through. After uni today, I got the 16:05 X1 (it left Eldon Square 11 mins late) and we got stuck in the roadworks for 8 minutes.

To the driver of the 23... You were due to leave at 0837, stop having your mother's meeting with the 24 driver.

(20 Oct 2014, 6:43 pm)aureolin Nowt worse! I had one the other week on the 21. Pulled in to Chester le Street bang on time early in the morning, and then took his float and cleared off for 5 mins. Then he had to horse it all the way to Durham in an attempt to catch that time up.
Nothing compared to what you used to get mind. I recall being left on the X85 once as it passed through Washington Village, so the driver could go into the off-licence for a couple of cans. Also had a driver on the old 183 spark up a tab en-route, which goes to show how long the route was!

(20 Oct 2014, 6:49 pm)Dan Still happens...That's bad like! A good 15 years since I've seen anything like that happen.
Some of the Stagecoach in Sunderland drivers who are close friends of my family have smoked for many, many years... Whenever they get stressed, they need a tab, and they don't care where they are.

SmileI got the Scarlet Band 16A home once and the driver went the chippy in Mowden, mind the 16A timetable has a lot of time to get to Newton Aycliffe pretty much back on-time once we got to Cockerton.

I need help with my Flickr.
Basically, I've realised I used a different e-mail for my Yahoo account, and it's actually the one my mam made for my puppy (yeah, you read that right......), and my sister knew the name and password but has since forgotten it.
I cannot access my account, and when I keep trying different things, I lose at least 2 points of IQ with frustration!
Help!
