There's always going to be strange people kicking around.Judging by the fact that I go to Darlington Town Centre, Durham Bus Station and Middlesbrough Bus Station on a regular basis, I am not exactly a stranger to this sort of thing but the worst you normally get is "err excuse me, I was before you!" yesterday, I really didn't know how I should be feeling but it was some form of frustration, of course in addition to her giving me the death stares, I also had the passengers staring at me wondering what on earth had gone on to provoke these reactions (typical it would happen the one time there would actually be other people on the X36! ) you'd seriously be mistaken for thinking I did something far worse or at least used some more colourful language than "problem?" I think the reason why I feel like I totally did wrong was just the way she went on, normally I just think "meh" then don't give it another thought and nobody else needs to batter an eyelid. Another thing that didn't help me was the fact that someone put a small suitcase in the luggage bay between the two seats and had to keep grabbing the rails to help stay in the seat, typical GNE would go and put a big Metro tray in the middle of a large luggage bay then put no papers in it!
At Stanley, the kids get on the 6 at Flint Hill, get off at Kyo. They then swarm down the street, attacking various structures (I think they once tried to kick a house down ?), and about an hour later wander in Stanley Bus Station. They start kicking the bins and structures, then flood onto the V7 back home.
Elderly people also knock about and start shouting and screaming when buses pull onto the wrong stand because the proper stand already has a bus parked up. One older folk also races his wheel chair up and down the bus station before heading out of the bus station to his kip hill residence.
If you go travelling with the mentality that you will come across stange people, all you do is shrug your shoulders at such oddities and laugh at their strange behaviour while reviewing the mass collection of odd people you see on a day-to-day basis.
Questioning strange behaviour isn't going to get a response that's worth having. If some random guy (or gal) came up to you asking if there was a problem - whilst going about your normal routine, you'd be like 'no..?' then spend the time wondering why somebody went out of their way to ask you that.
Don't let it bother you mate 😛
