I'm pleased that Tapatalk have reverted to the app being a bit like it was several months ago as it became incredibly annoying for quite a while, had to turn the notifications off for a little while because despite not selecting any options to do so, it was notifying me of every single post made on the forum, fortunately its behaving again now and is only notifying me when someone quotes my posts and when I receive PM's.

The bloke decided to sit in the outside lane after coming off the A1 all the way to Sainsbury's at 58mph - 12mph below the limit.
Appreciate the limit is a limit and not a target, but I lost count how many times I was undertaken by other cars, as the van refused to go into the inside lane. Total lack of consideration for other road users from the van driver, causing others to lose patience and make dangerous maneuvers.
I watched a very near miss, when the car behind the van (and in front of me) attempted to undertake the van on the A1231.

One thing I have noticed is, if you are heading Northbound on the A1, once you get past the Team Valley turn off where there is now three lanes, everyone drives down the middle lane, you'll go down the inside lane and there will be nothing else in it.

And then they pressed the bell to get another person on the tills!

(11 Feb 2017, 11:09 pm)MurdnunoC wrote To be fair, the shop-assistant should have probably notified the woman standing in front of you that a till had become free. On quite few occasions, perhaps because of my impatience, I have went up to a till when it has been busy only to find it is non-operational. Perhaps the woman in front has experienced something similar in the past and now waits to be called instead of risking embarrassment?
(11 Feb 2017, 11:17 pm)Jimmi wrote Think the shop-assistant was busy with another customer at the point the first one became available. I suppose the embarrassment thing could be a factor but I think we've all been subjected to this embarrassment at least once. It's happened in Tesco a few times, been about 6 tills when this has happened though. Think she just didn't see the available till.

Just as a full round trip on the Weardale 101 is around 2 hours, the demonstrators have always been allocated to the odd hour departures from Bishop Auckland Bus Station heading towards Stanhope, so if it was out today on 101 it will mostly likely have left at 13:00 then 15:15. Mind on Saturday it was on the X21 with no destinations programmed in and no ticket machine.
EDIT: Managed to get GNE 6146 at least which I have been after so wasn't a complete waste of time.
