Aye it's a shame some have to be miserable, probs have got nothing better to do than moan on. Never had a really bad driver for a while I don't think!

Drivers must hate being seen driving the 6 as Tommy got a hand gesture from a driver on the 6 in Durham and I got a two fingered salute from a driver on the 6 in Bishop Auckland Bus Station.

Was it this angry man?

Not sure on mine, as I took the image over a year ago and the camera I used to take the image was poor. Also in the original image I don't think we can see the drivers face, will dig out my hard drive at some point and look at the original photo.

Never really get any grief from drivers, if any start whinging at me, just look at them and shrug your shoulders. It did use to bother me when I was younger, but after working in a betting shop for over 12 years, it does toughen you up as basically there isn't a week goes by where I end up getting a verbal bashing off a person because they didn't get to the counter to get their bet on in time.

I always find it ironic that a person driving a vehicle covered in cameras, can take issue with someone taking photos of the said vehicle.

Jack, I wouldn't worry about taking photos of a bus before you get on it. Thankfully drivers like that are in the minority. Consider giving as good as you get, right back to them though.

He sure is! I had him on the 43 not long a go and he is very miserable, and throws your change on the thing instead of handing it to you like most do.

Not as good as the verbals Malarkey and the bird from Gateshead Central Taxis in Flickr Big Grin

I did tweet "Thunderbugs are go" when I was being swarmed by them, yesterday Big Grin

Well, the little blighter has finally had the sense to crawl to the side margins, so I could safely kill it and plug the laptop in, at last. I had one inside an old laptop and one of the boys saw it and splatted it - right in the middle of my screen!

Freightliner Intermodal.

The engine for 4N01 10.27 ex Leeds normally comes off off 4E01 ex Southampton as it did on Thursday 66501.

Yes I know that. But I was told by Freightliner that a 70 was operating it for only the 2nd time. However the 70 was on a later train.

Think I need to invest in new Blu-Tack, mine is failing to attach a poster to my wall, it better hold throughout the night, as I can't be bothered to get out of bed to take it down, and if it falls down when I'm asleep... Undecided
