I can apppreciate that they will want to have a corporate liveried bus opposed to a branded one allocated. i have seen you on the metro once i was with an old pal of mine who i used to see in college the odd time im not claustrophobic although one of my phobia is nothing to do with transport but i used the metro today to get me to and back from places as it is quicker |

Here's a link to the timetable for the 572 and other heritage routes they operate. http://www.cumbriaclassiccoaches.co.uk/h...routes.php Wouldn't mind going for a ride between Middleton-In-Teessdale and Barnard Castle when the summer timetable kicks in at Easter. |

(23 Dec 2015, 10:03 pm)Andreos1 wrote Cheers Jimmi. It is a cracking bus. Pity that I can't really do any of the routes at the moment as it would be nice to ride something different, may try Middleton-In-Teessdale to Barnard Castle, get the Scarlet Band 95/96 up there then 572 back down to Barney in the summer. Back to the annoyances, I'm feeling a little light headed again. |

Other bus passengers!
Seriously, I seem to be encountering all the brain dead morons in the last few weeks. One thing that's really getting on my collective tits now is people not being ready to board the bus, almost every bus I have gotten on in this last week or so has been stood at the stop, got on the bus and THEN rummaged around for their fare or pass, or in the case of yesterday we had one woman getting on the 5A at St. Clare's Church who stopped the bus continued talking to the other people at the stop and THEN got her several bags off a pushchair and got on the bus on her own, we were sat there for over three minutes and everyone was annoyed about this as the service was already over 15 minutes down. Then at the Aycliffe Town Centre stop we had a woman interrogate the driver as to why the bus was late then an old biddy sat in the seat behind the drivers cab on this Pulsar and she had bags and one of them tartan shopping trolleys and because of the lack of space in that seat she put the trolley in the aisle and of course the driver was going nowhere until she moved it (rightly so) so she did eventually move it but of course this made us later still. On the 7 I am on now a larger lady decided to stand right in front of the stairs on the Enviro 400 so I had to REALLY struggle to get past her and get up the stairs smashing myself into stuff including the handrails in the process, not as if there was no seats either, still a few downstairs and there was four people upstairs, ALL THOSE EMPTY SEATS UPSTAIRS!!! I know it's life, but boy it doesn't half irritate the hell out of me. |

Surely none of those buses are "accessible"? Genuinely have no idea. I assume they are affected, but maybe there will be a loophole somewhere that will exempt them? 'Illegitimis non carborundum'

My knees just can't deal with it. And i can't carry bags downstairs. See I tend to sit upstairs, but it's up to the bus to wait till I get downstairs and off the bus. We're reminded to 'remain seated until the bus has stopped' after all.

The oven has decided it doesn't want to be an oven anymore, and won't heat up. Great.

We're reminded to 'remain seated until the bus has stopped' after all. Aye, but I often find myself holding up little old ladies on my way down at Eldon Square! And while we're in the moaning thread, my left knee must have had its feelings hurt, as it locked rather painfully, when I tried to stand up, earlier. I can see me hobbling around the kitchen with my stick , this week. I need a good long walk to unlock everything. |
