Trespassing
Trespassing
I bumped into Gary Devlin earlier on at Gateshead and we both took a photo of a Nexus Solo SR on the 93, and the woman who I mentioned Yesterday came over from out of no where and asked us we had permission etc and started banging on about Health and Safety, Baring in mind we were both standing on the Pavement on the Concourse next to the Quaylink stand not doing any harm. I didn't say anything but Gary had a go at her as she was quite aggressive in her tone of voice. She decided to go inside the Bus Station and stand literally right behind us on the opposite side of the Glass, so we moved a little bit further along so that she couldn't see us as there was a Post in the way. We stopped there talking for a good 20-25 Minutes and she didn't move an inch. She was still there when I came back after going to Tesco to get a few bits and bobs, Which would of meant she hadn't moved for about an Hour.
See we've had another idiot spoiling it for enthusiasts by going into no go areas for photos!

I found the best policy is to keep moving or stay out of sight. Always be aware of your surroundings too.

It's certainly not the first time people have taken photographs from that layover bit or indeed the little crossing in the middle of the 58 stand and the layover, and I'm sure as hell it won't be the last - as it hasn't been condemned by all Nexus staff in the past. This photo shows someone standing there way back in 2005, an enthusiast who I believe is still around today.

There is nothing wrong with that photo Daniel, As said Person is not in the Bus Station (Technically) as you can clearly see he is standing above that layover, possibly standing in the Bushes judging by the angling of the shot itself. Compared to Bazza's where he actually crossed the crossing and took a photo, You could also argue after a few looks that Sean's Photo may have been taken from the middle of the Road next to the 58 Stand rather than the Pavement as many have suggested including myself upon first glance at it.
Which would makes both photos just as bad as each other. But because it's Bazza and the fact he a chequered past when comes to following the Guidelines and the also fact very few people like him. He is the one is then targeted and given grief to by other Enthusiasts who are no better than him for following the rules. I think this Trespassing Conversation really needs putting to bed once for all as it's getting out of hand from a personal point of view.
From experience of this kind of grief at the Start of this Year, I got accused Left, Right and Centre by other Enthusiasts for Trespassing in the Depots etc, But the thing is I always had Permission to take a few Photos. This sort of grief when multiple people are involved, could be classed as Bullying in some cases and when everyone gangs up on one person it's not very nice and leave people like Bazza feeling Insecure and Lacking Confidence in themselves as a Result.
I am not Defending Bazza at all here as he Big Enough and Old Enough to do that Himself as he is an Adult and he makes his own Decisions, I am merely pointing out that this Page isn't helping the matter in any shape or form, as it seems just about everyone has been slagging him off on this Page rather than it being about a Group of people Trespassing. When other Enthusiasts are no better than him.
I think it would only be right if the NEB Admin Team were consider to removing this Page as they have done in Past with Pages where Conversation has gotten out of hand.
There probably wouldn't be so much of an issue with Bazzas photo if he had used the proper crossing point. But I've been told he ran accross the road in front of a oncoming bus.
I must admit, I don't care where people photo in the bus station, as long as they do it without endangering themselves or other people.
And amazingly, it's not the tresspassing that gripes me the most about Bazza. It's the fact that he has sent malicious letters full of lies to bus companies trying to get innocent drivers the sack (I know of 2 drivers he done this to). In my opinion, there is no place in the hobby for people like that, and would probably explain why a lot of people don't like him.

(15 Nov 2013, 10:03 am)atlantean542 As it was me that took this photo in 2005 I can state that the photo and many others were taken by the fence on Prince Consort Road looking down towards the Interchange and that parking area.
If you look in the collection I also took this.
