15:01 - 23 Barley Mow Est to Birtley Crem (NJ11 EXJ)
Me and an elderly gentleman were waiting for the 82 in Barley Mow for a good 15-20 mins, unfortunatly one didn't turn up although it was scheduled to. We did though, see the 23 come down the bank so we hopped on that. The driver was very canny, although he loved his brakes! It cost me £1.30 to get to the Crem so about the same cost as the 82 to Birtley. Anyway, this is my favourite Pheonix bus, I have a really comfortable seat at the front! 9/10
15:23 - 21 Birtley to Barley Mow (6059)
Not this bloody bus again! It's like a magnet! I wasn't so happy with this short trip. The driver clearly didn't want to be there. He was rude, kept speeding up/braking very sharply and wasn't dressed properly. I hate this bus, it has a curse haha! If anyone is interested the driver was 3093
The 82 is a joke. I've saw several complaints about it on GNE's facebook page, and on Saturday, it was about 10 minutes late at Heworth!
