Would love to know the logic in this!

The X14 driver has just taken my child all zone ticket off me (no reason provided, just that I can't use it) yet issued me with a child single! Absolutely furious with this driver, and I wouldn't mind if he wasn't a rude bellend too. And to make it even better the WiFi doesn't work on the pile of shite.

Can you PM me his driver number and I'll take it up with the leading driver the next time I see him.

Arriva's leading drivers have the authority to discipline other drivers..? I thought this would be a managerial role...

Most of them are okay on the 308 but this one was horrible. I can't see Arriva doing anything though, I'll be lucky if I get a response I think.

The toilet flush deciding to break AFTER I chucked in a 'bloo'.

Cue lots of swearing and a blue hand.

The flush is fixed, but the blue isn't coming off the hand...

Pretty much every Blyth driver I've ever had has been miserable, grunting at you when you get on, not a great advert for the company. I remember one day last year I was waiting for people to get off the bus, before getting on, and he shouted at me to get on the bus as he didn't want to run late...

I was wresting with 1581's windows earlier, shortly after SOME IGNORANT GIT who I've had problems with before wanted to get past me and ended up manhandling me into a metal seat at Morpeth bus station. Thankfully the 2 driver (a very nice Blyth driver...!) told him off. 

So to Mr Ignorant Git, the seats behind the driver on a StreetLite are not priority seats and you are more than capable of walking very fast like a penguin after you manhandled me into the back of a metal seat.

If I bump into him while I do my explorer trip tomorrow I'll have have him tasting his bollocks via my shoe.

Every route seems to have its own ignorant git. They come out of the woodwork when big'un's with me (superficially passes for a young NT teen, until you try to hold a conversation with him) but littl'un's jumping, shouting and flapping tends to scare them off. The inbuilt prejudices of ignorant gits can be a useful thing, sometimes.

So, tonight's task - run it in safe mode and backup all my files plus hopefully some software files just in case it has to be totally reset. What a way to cement the last few weeks as the worse few weeks of my life...........

And now it won't even load in Safe Mode. So, that's 2 months worth of Photos lost along with my CV and other document
