Saw people moaning on twitter - of course if all buses have been filled and gone then the moral of the story is don't get there very last minute!
Metro have made a complete balls up today by the sounds of it - the whole system appears to have fallen over now People trespassing on the lines don't help obviously.
Didn't finish early - the buses got stuck at South Shields. Additional vehicles were sourced and supervisory staff helped drive additional R1s.
Stagecoach haven't helped matters today either apparently... Lots of drivers seemed to be complaining!
