What's annoying you today? V4
They used to be the hot topic in this thread - so seeing as mine is on its last legs...
My phone is doing my head in!
A few weeks back, the usb charging stopped working.
Tried a few plugs, connected to laptop - nowt. Still nothing.
Had a little look inside and it looks like there has been a slip of some sort in the phone charging point.
After a brainwave, I ordered a charging plate off amazon.
My phone has the charging plate functionality built in, so for a few weeks - perfect.
Except, today my phone has developed a bleed after it fell into the wood flooring in the house.
Only a matter of time before it gives up the ghost completely by the looks of it.
Three rough chavvy Pakistani teenage boys sitting opposite on the train generally being ignorant and finding it hilarious to slap each other. Hope they get hit by a bus
I came away for the weekend to actually be able to do a day out that isn't 0750-1800. So why, at 5 to 10 on a Sunday am I laid on the bed in the hotel room instead of out and about!? Weather earlier and lack of a good night sleep doesn't help matters and I can at least see the trains fly by and the buses entering the interchange. Home tomorrow.

(01 Feb 2016, 2:05 pm)Charles41 I was quite looking forward to the trip. On the day it did not meet my expectations. It may have been because I'd been working long hours and was tired but here's my list of issues:
*Organisation was lacking. Some people just seemed to disappear after the Metrocentre
*We did not visit Rowells or Primrose. When I asked about the Primrose yard in Acomb, I was told it was locked up. Likewise no mention was made of Rowell's Prudhoe yard.
*Some guy nearly got left behind twice. It was a tour not a taxi service.
*The Metrocentre break was ill-advised. I believe time could have been better spent travelling direct from Coopers to Acomb via Morpeth and Scots Gap with a lunch break in the middle rather than going back to Newcastle.
*Quite frankly many of the people from Yorkshire were bloody scruffy and unkempt to put it mildly. I was ashamed to be associated with them.
I'm just going to stick to my own trips from on.
A disappointed...Charles

To be honest, when he started doing the trips years ago they used to be quite decent. Trips were usually once every few weeks. But it got to the point where he had gone for Quantity rather then Quality. Think the last trip I did with him was with PC Coaches in 2012 and unfortuantley one of the advertised vehicles (a rare Scania K92 Double decker) was unavailable (not the guys fault). I had planned to do more of his trips but I was put off then he set up another trip in the same area as the one I was going on to try and poach passengers from the other guys trips. The last time I actually did one of these bus tours was 2014 when we did Golden Eagle in Scotland which was really enjoyable. Just haven't felt the urge to do any at the moment.
Nexus are not allowing Bus Enthusiasts to take photos at Park lane I am annoyed this is what David Archbold said I was annoyed when I had entered the bus station to meet up with my mates Michael and Pete along with Steven and I got told that bus enthusiasts are not allowed to take photos inside Park Lane I usually take photos where the fence is like any regular bus enthusiast I got an idea I got this from a fellow enthusiast he once said if he is there next time could all head to Sunderland with a Camera when this incident occurred I was on 4916 on 9 after finishing work I missed the first bus by 5 minutes but got the next one half hour later I am fuming David said this but I heard via his boss I can guess who Probs told a lie about us was I know his name inbox me and I can reveal who was there as my mates spotted him roaming about like a idiot

Nexus has a no photography ban in Metro-Bus interchanges for public safety. There are plenty of places other than bus stations to take photos.
If you have been approached by a member of staff, who has previously told you not to do so, then they might approach you again to remind you.
Please don't go over this old chestnut again.
(31 Jan 2016, 1:27 am)GMitchelhill Had a feeling it wouldn't go well with this tour.
I refused to do anymore bus tours with this organiser as a few years ago he set up a decoy page to poach people (and sabotage) another tour organised by a rival enthusiast. I was actually planning on attending this rivals tour because it was using ex GNE Olympians and double checking the details I noticed the tour I was going on went missing from the page, turn out the set up similar blog page to misguide people to his tour.
As for the person turning up late each time. They didn't have a dog by chance and a Newcastle United hat on.
