iOS 9.

Just don't like the app select bit (not the main screen, when you double press the circle). Too ewwy.

I know what you mean, it's getting on my wick too. Everything else is top-notch though.

Siri Suggestions? You can turn it off in settings.

Metro leaving early so I have a 16 minute wait, so that's me in a right one for the day.

Could have went to this open day at Edinburgh. Can't believe how expensive it is to watch the shower of shite that is Newcastle.

We pretty much had to give up taking photos there as every time we tried to take photos some plonker would just stand in front of the bus

Some forum members now know how angry I can get.

Other than that it was actually a good day.

Told you!

I managed to get photographs without anyone in them because I waited for the event to close before taking photos.

Currently waiting for the Swedish Volvo prototype to leave the depot.

I had that at Central with the Steam Veg.

Sadly you told me this just the other day, long after the train tickets were booked meaning I couldn't stay late because I needed to get the train and Marcus had to get the 15:30 train back. If I go next year I'll be staying in Edinburgh longer and not head to the open day until around 3pm.

I don't go to stations for photos anymore, so this isn't a problem for me. 

Could have had a photo of a steam train in Darlington but by the time I realised it was too late.

Tornado.

Got a sore/dried up throat, so talking is going to be very limited today.

One of the ten photos I was going to upload is now coming up with "This photo is no longer available" this has happened to me a few times this week

It happened to me a few times when I uploaded my photos earlier. Refreshed the page and it was fine on all occasions bar one, where I had to replace the photo.

The thing that made it even more annoying was it was the photo of that prototype Volvo at the open day, had to go to your photostream for the info about it so will have to do so again when I next upload that photo.

The first lot of Edinburgh photos are on my Flickr now, don't want to sound desperate but I've had problems uploading these photos and I've also had the joy of coughing my lungs up whilst trying to upload these photos and I now feel light headed and feel like I'm going to be sick which is not ideal when I'm about to have Sunday Dinner.

My dad's ill again, and I'm getting really stressed over him

(19 Sep 2015, 4:19 pm)GX03 SVC wrote I've been having thoughts recently.

I keep thinking about the 'good old days' when I used to go to the MetroCentre and the cinemas on the evening of my birthday. I also remember when I used to have loads of friends at school and how they all were helpful and kind.

Then, I remember the dark days. Being locked in a 'quiet room' for the most of the day at a special school in Blyth and then being beaten up at a school in the Throckley area. Then the frequent fights between my mam and her ex-husband. I didn't know if I was going to survive for as long as I have.

How much things have changed in six years. I really don't know how I've got through all of the hell.

The good old days...

you sound like an old man lmao

I see no point in uploading the rest of the photos from my trip to Edinburgh yesterday if no bugger is interested in them. Can't help but feel I've wasted my time!

What has given you that impression? Lack of views on others etc? I would take the view of that you take photos for yourself but you let others view them online.

The views are terrible, after six hours many of them only have around 30 views and pretty much the only favourites come from the same two people who faved every photo. I enjoy taking the photos but uploading them to Flickr can be a painful process as pretty much all my photos have to be cropped down and things often seem to go wrong for me when I try to upload to Flickr with me losing one of the photos I tried to upload this afternoon hence why I randomly uploaded nine photos instead of ten. If I get even a reasonable amount of views/favourites I'm happy but if I'm going to get very low views I'm not putting myself through the uploading process on Flickr if it seems like no-one has any intrest in viewing these photos especially as I am under enough stress without shouting at the laptop because I find my photo has been replaced with a message saying "This photo is no longer available" I know I shouldn't get annoyed about this but I really can't help myself, viewing other people's Flickr's is sometimes a bad idea especially when I have low views/favourites and they have more, I have always been like this though even when I was in school, everyone would get praised and I'd get little attention and when I did it was "you need to improve this" and when I took part in sporting events when I did well, nothing. Don't know why I am like this and I hate myself for thinking this.

Early days Jimmi, i'll view them tomorrow when i'm on my computer, phone is terrible for Flickr... cba to download the app.

Other people might not be on the computer at this time.

I know but I usually can somewhere in the region of at least 100 views in the space of six hours on typical North East uploads (excluding some independents).

I'm slow at viewing other people's Flickr's but this is because my WiFi provider is crap and when I try to view them on the app all I get is grey boxes.

Don't know why I am annoyed about it, I really shouldn't be but I am. Doesn't help I'm unwell today so have been stuck in the house all day and just looking at everything on my phone more than usual.

Some of us were a kip..!

What left of my self esteem as been brutally beaten thanks to some customer having a go about veing unshavened, said I looked scruffy. Told him to leave it, and said my self esteem is low enough as it is, and the fact my anxiety is playing up. The twat just became more verbally abusive towards me saying I was a stupid twat. I'm not paid enough to put up with this shit.

Some people are just vile. 

Just think of karma, Gary. Someone will go up to him and pick on him for his gambling addiction... of how he's a stupid twat and spends all of his dole on placing bets...

I usually upload my photos on a Saturday, more people are in and uploading photos after their days out then. 

HGVs get absolutely no faves at all from the HGV enthusiasts. 

I have a photo of 7505 on my Flickr, crap photo as I was sat on a bench and the road was in the shade, but it got quite a few faves, I don't know why, as it wasn't screaming that it was on a very rare diversion.

Oh, and this new design for 'Post Reply' isn't very good. I've had to move my head from the usual viewing position to write an edit.
