Me and Mrs are moving into our own kip soon...

Get the keys and sign the tenancy agreement tomorrow...Apart from being in Care in the late 1990's I have never willingly left home...

I am a bag of nerves to be honest, we have only been together for nearly 8 months now...

We didn't have a good start to our relationship, I had been with her for a week when my sister died and that really pushed my emotions to the limit, partner even asked if I wanted to put things on hold for a bit, she would not have thought bad of me for doing so considering the circumstances...

Anyway despite other little things, I am happier than I have been for years and everything feels right about becoming a proper family...

I cant wait to give the best years of my life to my partner/future wife, my step-daughter and any future Little F's she squeezes out

I was lucky enough to be drawn a ticket for the Labour leadership hustings in Gateshead tonight. So I'm listening to the debate right now!

I'm on 6063 this morning and we're late (somehow) but it's certainly the fastest hybrid I've been on. 

The best bit....the nsa are still off!

It did surprise me to see XP as it was announced a few years ago that the system would no longer be supported.

I know! Computers at my school ran Windows XP and I left six years ago now, mind my school was littered with outdated technology, computers in my last year actually came from Nissan. Just about every video we watched was recorded off the tele, so you'd usually have something educational then it cut to adverts, quite funny hearing something scientific and then all of a sudden it just says "the banana"

Believe the Arriva next stop announcement equipment is also Windows XP.

The Next Stop Announcements on vehicles new between 2010 and 2014 run off a HANCIS Next Stop Announcement system - this is powered by Windows XP, and behind the scenes it is just like a normal computer. That is why the vehicles which have had Next Stop Announcements the longest incur the most faults - you wouldn't run a PC for six years, for around 15 hours a day!

In line with Windows XP being discounted (2014), a new system (HTC) was introduced. This is powered by Linux. In Go North East's fleet, all of the vehicles with the new LED screen, as well as the two AD122 Solos, are powered by this system. It's a lot more robust.

Very good well done! I'm so glad we finish early on Tuesday now so I didn't have to take RE like previous years have too, I'm guessing you didn't choose it as most schools it's forced upon you so I wouldn't be bothered about it either.

Thanks both, I've just come back from Scarborough hence the late reply.

I have chosen to continue with my Business and History with the inclusion of Sociology. Looking forward to the more relaxed environment and up to 9 free hours every week!
