(02 Feb 2015, 11:24 am)leestransportphotos Oh I know haha, spitting on the bus is hideous though hahaYou would have hated me about 15 years ago, I used have the ability to clear the top of a bus with a well timed fart, and one day was so ill with a hangover, that I puked out of a window and left a mess down the side of a bus...It is still talked about today by people who were on the bus that day

(02 Feb 2015, 11:27 am)MurdnunoC Fair enough. But you could have just noted that there there two rude people on the bus - one of whom was spitting. Their nationality, or your political beliefs, do not have any bearing on the story. Not all immigrants are rude after all.Got to agree with Mr MurdnunoC on that...

In understand there are a few Polish drivers at Stanley depot.
My grandad used to see them regularly, as he went the club he was a member of and they went too.
They (presuming there are indeed more than one like he said) live in Tanfield Lea from what I gather.

I have always found the Polish/Eastern European drivers to be friendly, more than some British drivers, at one time there seemed to be loads of foreigners driving around Sunderland and Co. Durham and quite a few went back to Poland/Eastern Europe leaving only a few round about 2010/11...
Will never forget going for a drink in Sunderland the day they won promotion in 2007 against Burnley, me and my mate had a couple of Burnley tagging along on the bus with us, when we started a chant off, the foreign bus driver started to get worried, he was German I think, I could see him getting worried and looking a bit on edge, he kept glancing at his radio as if he was going to call for some kind of backup, until me and my friend told him the Burnley lads were our guests and not rivals wanting to fight each other
