I hope that it wasn't so bad that it couldn't be mitigated by some creature comforts.

My photo of a refurbished Metrocar that I uploaded to Wikipedia for use on the TW Metro page, to replace an outdated photo has been reported for copyright violation...

It is my photo, as I took a photo of it, uploaded to Flickr and then uploaded it to Wikipedia...!

Photo taking is going so badly wrong today that I've just punched myself in the face in frustration after my shot of 9108 came out a bit blurry with another being ruined by someone crossing the road in front of it and the X21 ruined my shot in Durham. Photo of 5284 went wrong to.

Jumped on the 20 in Park Lane and I saw the X21 at the other end as we were leaving. Pissed is an understatement, as you can imagine I am really pleased about having to spend over an hour on this rattling Prince Bishops shed which is making me feel sick and the seat behind the drivers cab is unsuitable if you have legs.

I was in a bad enough mood to start with!

Was pleased to get the top deck of an Enviro 400 to myself... Five stops later a large family with loud annoying children get on, was bad enough listening to the loud annoying next stop announcements.

Not what you want at 0815 on a Saturday morning when you've had little sleep.

Congratulations to Arriva who have placed a Pulsar on the X93....

Congratulations to LeeCalder, who has been shortlisted for the most cynical bus enthusiast award (strong competition for it, mind!)

They only allocate single-decks when nothing else is available - and I am pretty sure you'd agree that having to stand on the X93 is better than no bus at all..! Obviously if people get turned away, then the bus effectively hasn't turned up for those people, and I would anticipate Whitby would attempt to dupe it with another single-deck?

Can you tell I'm having a bad day, Dan

Happens to the best of us!

I was in a right strop with myself on Thursday as I didn't feel very well. Even turned down a McDonalds!

(29 Aug 2015, 9:28 am)Dan wrote Happens to the best of us!

It wouldn't be as bad if there wasn't young people sitting sprawled across 2 seats forcing older people to stand. However, it suppose is there desision to board the bus.

I was suppose to go out with Dan to try and find 9108 but I don't feel well

Na its not is it? when i worked, i worked 5/6 weeks and it was great, helped me catch up on paper work and catch up on anything else which needed doing...

I still have until 22nd September off............ bored isn't the work, low on money........ -.-

Stop moaning about a Pulsar on the X93. Try being refused entry on multiple buses. This morning on the 35;

Bus 1:
MPD - no seats available, no space for pram
Bus 2:
ALX400 - no space for pram
Bus 3:
StreetLite - asked to get off in Pegswood to allow for extra people to get on

After that we didn't bother continuing to Morpeth. A complete waste of time.

Don't think I've seen a refereeing performance this bad, in a Premier League game. Giving literally everything to Arsenal, unbelievable, and when he didn't give something to them, it was the most blatant penalty in the world. 

How he's a Premier League referee I do not know

Same for Sunderland, everything against us.... Arsenal should of had a penalty, how he missed that i have no idea.

I was watching it on BT Sport, and I've not got a clue how Robbie Savage has a job as a commentator, unbelievably biased, even Niall Quinn is balanced when commentating on the derby for Sky!

I was wondering who it was.

No idea how Krul didn't get man of the match, he was great....

Just hoping Sunderland can play decent today......

Finding out that XFM has reportedly signed Chris Moyles to present the XFM breakfast show

I hate Chris Moyles, he thinks he's incredibly funny when he really isn't and I actually like Jon Holmes' show, he actually is funny and has won comedy awards.

Apparently there is big rebrand plans for the station and I am fearful they will totally ruin it and XFM is the only radio station I actually like listening to so if they make it totally unbearable to listen to I don't know what I will do. I can only deal with Absolute Radio for so long, I like new indie music and they don't play enough to keep me listening.

There isn't a 'what's making you feel queasy' thread, so this will have to do.

A lad in grey tracksuit bottoms has just got off the bus, sporting a big brown smudge down the back of his tracky bottoms.
Seepage gone badly wrong.

I have no idea which seat he was sitting in unfortunately, with him sitting behind me - so wasn't able to advise the driver.

Congratulations you've found Kuyoyo....

I'm not even wearing grey tracksuit bottoms so not guilty

I discovered that 8328's NSAs are pathetic and that 558 is the worlds most rattely bus (after Blyth's Pulsars.) Would not have wanted to have stayed on 558 much longer on the rough 74, as much as I like MPDs I do think the experience could have been better with 555,618,619 or 5210. 619 would cushion the impact from the road

That's the issue with the NSAs?

I agree on 558, but that goes for pretty much every MPD in my opinion.

Not sure what amused me the most.
The fact it happened the first time or the fact all you were bothered about was the fact you focused on telling Tyresmoke you weren't wearing grey tracky bottoms yesterday - rather than clarifying nothing else had happened

Accidents happen.

Where to start... 

7515, being over 6ft, cars, awkward bus passengers, rude people, being late, inability to sleep, FIFA... The list goes on, has not been my day today

Oh, and to the spider who crawled under the bath while I was cleaning my teeth, if you're in the bath tomorrow morning when I go in the shower, prepare to drown...
