By fast cars do you mean a Peugeot 206 driven by your mammy.

wait were all freaks because we have a interest in buses, so if u don't like them why did you sign up to the forum or was it just to be a troll?

Maybe if you looked carefully SOME of us actually do drive buses and are enthusiasts before thinking you are clever. I like motorbikes too, I have a life outside the buses thankfully but what if someone said, "why are you a motorbike freak get a grip of reality?"

I'll admit there is some who take the hobby too serious but maybe if you kept your crap patta too yourself you wouldn't look more of a tit your portraying yourself as.

Hey your the one who has turned up on a bus forum what on earth do you think we are going to talk about? If you don't like what we've got to say just go and don't come back.

Also all this talk of fast cars and fast woman, you are probably just compensating the fact that you are probably a sad little virgin.

Judging by the fact you chose the GCT thread out of all the threads on the forum (and the content of your initial post actually), makes me think you're associated with them.

Still its a sad way of life anyway haven't got time to associate with this shite anymore got a real life to live. Later fuckers

I find that signing up to a forum just to troll people even more sad, you clearly don't have a real life if you are still here making another reply when you said you were leaving so if your going to leave, leave.

I'm stuggling to understand your logic here. You imply that everyone who has an interest in buses is a "freak". Why? How? On what basis did you come to that conclusion?

Everyone is different and everyone has their own interests, and it so happens to be that buses and other forms of public transport are ours. You also call bus enthusiasm "weird". Alright, it may not be the most common interest in the world, but calling it weird is a bit ignorant of you.

I, and many other members of the forum, respect GCT a lot for wanting to take on new ventures. It's always great to see small firms wanting to expand their businesses. So that point about us "singling out a company that's proving you wrong" is completely invalid.

Oh, and by the way, I also have a hectic social life away from the buses. I'm 18 and do go out partying/clubbing quite often, and my friends couldn't really give a stuff if I'm interested in buses or not. So there's proof that we're not all sad little individuals who have no social life. You'd be surprised how many other similar cases their are.

And to finish off, I shall leave you with a quote from the good old philosopher Aristotle: "To avoid criticism, say nothing, do nothing, be nothing".

Hahaha my god you lot are easy to wind up

Adam, thats the first decent thing i have read and fair comment, cant argue the fact of what you said but when it comes to just constantly slating a local company for giving it a real go then sorry i still stand on slating bus spotters

I like trolls.

Trolling can be fun if done subtlety over time and others are 'in' on the joke.

However, signing up to an internet forum just to mock people over the course of a few hours is rather boring and ineffective (in terms of trolling).

Try harder!

As for GCT, I really don't have a problem with taxi-buses and would like to see their public-transport operations expand and flourish regardless of vehicle type.

You'd hope so, but failing that, Nexus will certainly have a code of conduct that they expect their contractors to adhere to. Anonymity on the Internet is a great thing, unless you're crap at it!

Are you being serious?
Busman1 has converted me, with his passionate opinions.
Off to buy a fast bike, find a fast woman, learn how to spell poorly and register on forums, to dish out abuse.
The pain in my right wrist won't ease off, due to the incessant riding of my bike - but swings and roundabouts..

Let's all be like busman1, it is the future!

If I were trolling, I'd find it simpler to have one notebook and have loads of tabs open in (insert web-browser here) to keep track of my witty observations and comments on the forums and message boards I've targeted. Buying more than one notebook is a waste of money in my opinion.

Well this amused me.

I bet if Busman1 indeed had a fast bike, he'd attempt to operate fast bike on a GCT Scholars Service....

That makes me feel old :si mean a notebook that requires a pen to write on the pages within as us bus freaks need to keep track of our objects of desire

Drove into Biddick Woods earlier and there was someone waiting for the 37.
She was standing in the shelter, but I didn't see her (despite making an effort), until I was more or less parallel with the stop.
No idea how the drivers can see from the main road!

Anyone know how much a Single or a Day Ticket is with GCT from Washington Galleries to Doxford Park, As I have 2 Job Interviews up there Tomorrow.

They don't do day tickets or returns, and I'm not sure what price it is for a single. I wouldn't have thought it would be more than £6.90 for two singles though, which is what a Day Rover would cost you.
