Dont forget, the July changes come into effect from this coming Sunday (21st), i for one am dreading the 9 taking over, hourly service opposed to the current half hour service offered by the 10/11, so if you miss it, you're screwed, atleast Stagecoach attempted to still run the service like that through the Tyne Tunnel closure unlike GNE who have peddled that excuse from the off "due to the Tyne Tunnel roadworks, service 9 will operate hourly from Jarrow to North Shields"
