Why don't you order a key card Dan P?
If money is the problem, I'll give you the £2.55 extra for a G around?

Its fine i'll manage with my U16 POP card.

No idea - if you could take a photo where you got off with EXIF data?

Would filming part of the journey and then taking a photo of the exterior of the bus when you get off not work? At least that way you will know that they have actually rode the bus and proof of the fleet number (the livery is most important in this situation)

Good idea Robert!
I think that would be the best way forward, and they can send them to my email. Even a photo would do.

To gain the points they would need both things i have mentioned. Also worth mentioning that similar videos off youtube dont count and i think there will need to be a way of monitoring this (possibly assigning somebody to watch all the videos of the journeys that have been previously recorded and posted to youtube to see whether there are the same. It will be quite easy to tell.

So, who is taking part.
Make a note here, and whether you are working with someone or not.

Photo before you get on and one when you get off? Exif data would match up. Video can be a bit awkward for us DSLR users, as it's usually not just a case of hitting a button.

I'll give it a try depending when though.

Aye that's a good idea - we'll go with that then. Tickets would be fine if buying singles too.
When are you free mate?

I'm definitely in - providing it's the date we discussed via PM? I won't be able to do it between Wednesday 6th through to Friday 16th because I'm on holiday.

Hopefully it'll be the 4th of August.

Great.
I think it will be anywhere in GNE territory though.

Diary is pretty full with work commitments for the next month or so. Meaning only Saturdays for me I'm afraid.

So, just so we've got a rough head count of how many participants, can you PM me and tell me if you're in or not?

Also, if you've got any questions that your not sure on, ask me.

It's a no for me unfortunately.

Have you confirmed a date yet..? If it's the 4th then it's a no for me.

Yeah, it looks like that. Shame....hopefully there are a few who can.

I don't see why we can put it later on? How about 26th August?

Could definatley work, will anyone be available for the 26th?

As long as it's not the bank holiday weekend when I'm away it's fine.

Don't change the dates just to suit a few people - you will still be trying to arrange something by Christmas if you do.
There is always a date that someone can't do.

Go with the date you had in mind and if people want to do it and can do it, pretty sure they will.

If the don't or can't, then that isn't your problem.

Yea exactly. You'll never be able to accommodate everyone.

I should be able to but don't want to commit to it just in case something crops up.

That's fine, Dan

I'll put you down anyway though, yeah? Then if you can't, I'll just remove you from the list.

Anyone else in, the date is Monday 4th August?

Not for me, either - weekends are best as I can't really take many days off work for the next few months.

I would have been for the T&W zone only rule too btw...

For me... Arriva Redcar, Stockton, Or Whitby depots... If Loftus depot was still open I'd go there.. No question about it.. Wouldn't mind working for Skelton or Coatham coaches neither.... Got four years until I can be a bus driver... But I'll be applying to be a Driver on one of the three Teesside depots

Do we get any points for getting 9120.

Yes, I'd day 3 points, as it's pretty easy to get a hold of.
