Excellent job as always from GNE I must say, I spent 2 Hours and 20 Minutes on the X1 from Washington Galleries to Gateshead, took over an hour to get from one side of Springwell Village to the other due to traffic being gridlocked, then get stuck again coming up to Wrekenton and then along to the Q.E. Hospital, obviously my Driver must of worked well past his Break to get back to Washington unless he had one in Newcastle before making a very late return journey.
Unfortunately I did make it to work today, after a few phone calls to them I made the decision to head back home as I didnt know what the Arriva X7/X8 and SNE X63 were going to be running like, nor did I know what the traffic was like going into Newcastle City Centre, then coming back out of town and up to Longbenton, literally had no signal at all to be able view the Weather Updates as it was up and down like a yo-yo, the joys of being with EE.
Think there is meant to be more white stuff tomorrow also, in which case I am instead going to get the Metro to Work.
