I had a ride out on National YFY4M, Dart 33101, Bristol VR LFS296F, and Bristol VR H106. The highlight was the open topper, despite me inadvertently soaking people from the tree branches. I'd put a pretty long rant after the Seaburn Rally last year, as I didn't think it offered much, but I found this the complete opposite and it was certainly worth getting up for.
RE: The Bazza incident. What a disgusting way for people to go on! Andrew Todd (aw bugger I've just named him!) had came away from Bazza, and was ranting on about something he'd said. He then went storming back over there, despite the advice of his friends. Bazza had raised his voice and told him to back off or something, yet that Andrew started chasing him round and behind the buses - ffs this is a 33yr old guy we're talking about here! Andrew looked to have went at him behind them, and the next thing we heard was Bazza screaming like he'd been hit, and we didn't see anything else of him afterwards.
Also to the morons that were standing laughing at the whole thing. The lot of you should know better, and what you're laughing at is a lad with disabilities getting bullied. Scumbags.
I saw this they had allegedly been saying things about each other Bazza told Andrew to F*** off when he called him Barry then Andrew started walking away then ran back after him and the scream was Bazza shouting for his Dad as he had slid on the mud and Andrew was about to kick him but we managed to stop him and Bazza managed to get to his Dad and we walked Andrew away to try and calm him down but I walked away to try and find Bazza and make sure he was alright and Lee came over and said that Andrew has various disabilities himself but Lee said after he was sticking up for Andrew Bazza then left after his Dad and Andrew exchanged words Lee Andrew and Alex all apparently went to the Police Station in Newcastle.
I then walked around bt myself for a few minutes until Jack and Sid came we went in 3814's cab then when 33101 came out we boarded along with you Marcus Jimmi and Dan. When we got back we looked around the stallls in which Sid bought a roller blind originally £25 and negotiated down to £12. Davie then texted me saying that he was nearly there on the E6 so I sat outside and waited we then got on 3814 then 6121 the Lee Andrew and Alex came back so me and Davie left and went our own ways.
