It is windy out tonight I remember once back in the 90s roughly 1998 or 1999 we had a massive wind storm at one that Sunday we took my mam to work at her then work place at Boldon Asda and on the route I remember seeing a van door came off a bent lampost and the radio going on about Tyrone Dobbs new dog named Monica in a quiz since then Alan Halsall is still in Corrie and Monica the dog is no longer in it

I've already gone through six schools (2 first schools, 3 special schools, 1 home-tutoring, 1 autism school and 2 tuition sessions a week.) Social services are right bellends, the rest bite carers follow me around fucking everywhere and want me to do chores like washing their cars, collecting sand from the beach, printing photos of buses (sadly Tommy's Photos Copyright Act 2014 prohibits that! Angel ), printing photos of me out so they can put it on the wall etc. (also photos of my face is prohibited unless on a bus, train or Metro) all to EARN a trip to York. Fucking bellends.

I would have set all my schools on fire if I had a chance.

I went through placements of a different kind, I was in Care as a kid between 1995 and 2001, I moved a total of 15 times and at least 12 of those moves came between 1995 and 1998, I have been in a total of 6 Childrens Homes and 1 Foster Placement...My Bus Enthusiasm become more of a thing for me when I was in Care, at one point they gave me an explorer ticket every Saturday, I went all over the place from Berwick to Scarborough across to places like Barnard Castle and down to Ripon, as I like my own company, some of those were the best days of my teenage years

Sounds like you have been through it as well mate, my experience of Social Services has been relatively good, I had a very love/hate relationship with them in the late 90's, I did work for them and the education department at the time and helped them with some of there policies. I loved my social worker and her boss, but hated the people high up in County Hall, I was part of a group that called Social Services out when we needed to and fought various authorities if it was needed, I fought for people like you and one of my best friends in the group had learning disabilities and think he was probably autistic, he would annoy the shit out of me, because he knew exactly what buttons to push, lol...

I think the department would have been happy when our little group lost it's funding in 2010, as other organisations had known to entice some of our users to them by offering cash rewards to goto them and help them to undertake the work we were trying to do...bastards...

Keep ya chin up mate, it is not as bad as you think it may be, it could be a lot worse pal...

As fot my former deputy head at school, he was an absolute cumstain, I hated him, I heard a while back when he left teaching he became a Vicar, I wont say much more about him, he apparantly died a few years ago, so I will leave it at that

Aye, I've decided against going out today. Can't stand it when the wind is like this.
It's just this minute started to snow in Rowlands Gill.

Although I generally don't mind bad weather, it's a bit nuisance when it comes to work.

If it continues, it's going to be interesting driving up to Stanley for 3 o'clock.

I'm on the Red Kite heading up to Consett now - I'm hoping the snow is as good as BBC Weather suggest it is...

At the moment, it's no longer snowing and there are bright blue skies again. Sad

It snowed for about a minute, the sky suddenly went dark, then the sun emerged again with a bright blue sky.

For all I know, I might be in Consett this afternoon. I don't mind snow in Consett as it's reasonably flat upon the plateau. Getting to Blackhill, Bridgehill, Benfieldside or Shotley Bridge may pose more of a problem though.

Was pretty much the same in Darlington when I was waiting for the X66.

Was annoyed as service 5 was late (as ever!) and I saw the X66 going round the Harrowgate Hill roundabout, so I had to wait 20 minutes in the cold.
Snowing in Stanley now.

Was gutted when, after 10 mins of being on the 689, it started snowing.

Only been showers though and it's sunny at the moment.

Yeah only showers in Middlesbrough too, I ended up snapping photos whilst the last shower was coming down - it was freezing!
Snowed for a bit at Longhirst. While I was waiting for the NMT.
I'm always getting mouth ulcers and they are always really big and cause great irritation and I always seem to get two at once to make it worse.
