RE: What's annoying you today? V3 - omnicity4659 - 14 May 2015 What the eff is serving-sys???? What's annoying you today? V3 - Jimmi - 14 May 2015 Well getting the X35 was a mistake, stuck in terrible traffic due to temporary traffic lights. RE: What's annoying you today? V3 - MurdnunoC - 14 May 2015 (14 May 2015, 2:58 pm)Jimmi wrote Well getting the X35 was a mistake. Fixed. Getting the X35 is a mistake. Any reason why is almost redundant.

Then we got treated to a trip right round Hartlepool Marina presumably to miss out Victoria Road to make up some time, the X35 goes via Victoria Road in both directions I think? May be wrong.

Aye, it spins round outside the retail parks. In via Raby Road, town centre, Marina/retail parks and reverse. RE: What's annoying you today?

I've used various different ways of getting into Hartlepool in the past including: 1 Middlesbrough 23 Peterlee 33/8A Newton Aycliffe/Ferryhill 36 Middlesbrough / Stockton Even used the Pygalls 230 from Sunderland once.

There is a pretty much standard way buses passing Hartlepool Hospital go. All via Raby Road. So when you got the 23, the X35 should have gone the same way. RE: What's annoying you today?

Should have been more clearer - some run behind the hospital, some run in front of the hospital - but those passing the hospital (in front or behind), all go a pretty much standard way via Raby Road etc RE: What's annoying you today? V3 - S813 FVK - 14 May 2015 (14 May 2015, 4:16 pm)Andreos1 wrote And then Winterbottom Avenue (running behind the hospital?) and Raby Road... The 23 route around the Hospital is displayed below. There are no stops on Warren Road (left at the end of Winterbottom Avenue) and the next one after the end of Winterbottom Avenue is on Davison drive vice versa. RE: What's annoying you today?

It took the President nearly 5 minuets to get up the bank! RE: What's annoying you today? V3 - Dan - 15 May 2015 Well, I still feel terrible (after 12 hours sleep), and my first exam is in a matter of hours. What's annoying you today? V3 - Jimmi - 15 May 2015 Smoking in confined public areas. Currently waiting for a taxi outside Tesco with several people having tabs surrounding me. The smell and smoke makes me want to hurl. RE: What's annoying you today? V3 - Adrian - 15 May 2015 (15 May 2015, 4:15 pm)Jimmi wrote Smoking in confined public areas. It's disgusting. I've got absolutely nowt against people smoking, as long as it isn't done in a way that it gets on my lungs or in my way. I hate the constant litter of cigarette butts around doorways too. It's funny to think that 8 years ago people were smoking in pubs and clubs. It was lifting the way that smoke used to linger on your clothes, and it was that bad in some places it would make your eyes water. Some time before that, people were still smoking in shopping centres. I remember the Galleries being full of smokers. RE: What's annoying you today?

Not that anyone tends to take any notice of the signs, but I'm glad the decision was made to even make it illegal to smoke in bus shelters. I can't stand the smell of smoke, but I don't tend to care as much about them visually. I hate how it lingers on a smoker's clothes and they end up sitting next to you on a bus or train, so it still all ends up passing on. RE: What's annoying you today?

Durham bus station entrance is really bad for it.Hate that entrance because of all the people congrating around there smoking, especially annoying if the queue for the 7 stretches outside of the bus station which it sometimes can do. It's also bad if you are waiting for a bus on stand A as you have people stood right next to the doors so on a windy day not only do you have the smoke blown in your face you also freeze to death. RE: What's annoying you today? V3 - Michael - 16 May 2015 Woke up and iv'e completely lost my voice. -.- Better be back for Monday, i have a presentation for uni to do! RE: What's annoying you today? V3 - northern156 - 16 May 2015 Wish someone would open a window on this Eclipse, like a bloody greenhouse!! RE: What's annoying you today? V3 - Jimmi - 16 May 2015 (16 May 2015, 3:24 pm)northern156 wrote Wish someone would open a window on this Eclipse, like a bloody greenhouse!!I rode 3942 on the X10 one day last year and it wasn't a warm day but I ended up removing my hoodie and was still too warm so I went to open the window only find it already was. One thing I hate about GNE Volvo B9TLs (at least from Thursday's outing) was the windows at the front upstairs and on even a moderatly windy day I was getting deafened by the noise of the wind striking the front windows. Was sat at the front of the X1 and X9 on Thursday and both were giving me a headache although not as loud as the two people sat next to me and one of them nearly fell on me as we turned to enter Heworth Interchange.

Yes that's one thing that really grates on me about the B9s which are, all round, an excellent bus for the job they're made to do. I'm guessing it's to do with the vents rather than the window itself, but it's certainly annoying! RE: What's annoying you today?
