Wish someone would open a window on this Eclipse, like a bloody greenhouse!!

I rode 3942 on the X10 one day last year and it wasn't a warm day but I ended up removing my hoodie and was still too warm so I went to open the window only find it already was.

One thing I hate about GNE Volvo B9TLs (at least from Thursday's outing) was the windows at the front upstairs and on even a moderatly windy day I was getting deafened by the noise of the wind striking the front windows. Was sat at the front of the X1 and X9 on Thursday and both were giving me a headache although not as loud as the two people sat next to me and one of them nearly fell on me as we turned to enter Heworth Interchange.

Yes that's one thing that really grates on me about the B9s which are, all round, an excellent bus for the job they're made to do. I'm guessing it's to do with the vents rather than the window itself, but it's certainly annoying!

Some anus threw a pebble at me from a moving car.

Something always goes wrong when I walk into Ashington.

Me, Lee and my friends Anthony & Kailey were denied access to Newcastle Central Station to photograph a class 47 on a rail tour this evening

Why? Did you all have a ticket?

We went to sign in, so we could get a platform ticket which means you have access to all platforms without a ticket

Strange. What was the reason they wouldn't issue one?

Apparently it's private property but we've never had any trouble before and there were other enthusiasts which had signed in

How many people have you usually went with in the past?

Sounds like someone has seen all of you arrive together, and not like the look of you all. A handful of young lads in a group is always going to make people think twice. 

I know enthusiasts who have been photographing at Newcastle for years and years and have never had an issue.

The most I've been with was 5 with my mate Thomas who is younger than, me and we were fine hen

They said we would have been aloud in if we kept them private but not if they were going on the Internet

Yeah, that's what I was thinking hence my question to Davie about how many people does he usually go spotting with.

Shouldn't make a difference really.

That's what we thought but we got told to leave

How did they know your photographs were going to be published online?


RE: What's annoying you today? V3 - Davie - 16 May 2015

They asked my friend Anthony and he politely replied 'Youtube'

To paraphrase a line from Ghostbusters: 'Davie (or whomever), the next-time someone asks you if you intend to post your photos to the internet, you say "No"'

That should suffice.

We said we promise them we'd keep 'em private and the bloke who told us to leave still refused to let us in

Can I just add actually, this pretty much sums up my week after my dad got taken to hospital Friday 15th May 2015 and we found out he actually nearly died!
