I was thinking the other day if anyone remembers the 319 being taken over or shared by arriva i think it was about 2006 before the service was withdrawn and taken over by pink panther 81

Partly inspired by the channel 4 teletext page of the same name, which was popular many moons ago - here is a problem page.

Problems can be real, made up relating to yourself or relating to a 'friend'.
Hopefully the answers provided can help us through the muddles of everyday life.

A mate is off to a friends housewarming party this weekend.
That sounds pretty innocuous - but he has become 'friendly' with a mutual female friend.
That mutual friend, will also be at the party.

One or two people have their suspicions, regarding the 'friends with benefits' relationship. Others are totally oblivious - but the two in question are unsure how to approach things.

Do they behave in an up-front fashion, do they play things under the carpet or do they pretend they don't know each other?
The male and female in question only met a month or so ago, when introduced by the married couple.

Any advice would be appreciated, cos I haven't got a clue what to tell them.
I will also be at this housewarming, so being in the know - I am aware of how awkward things could be.

Just put the news on to see there are issues in the tunnel.

Overhead wire problems have rendered one of the tunnels out of action - with both northbound and southbound services alternating on the remaining track.

There seems to be huge delays.

19158 is breathing again, she got stripped of some parts but should be coming back soon. 22040 in for repair so should be back soon

There's at least 3 solos working service 22 Durham to Hartlepool today

For anyone wanting a photo of it given that it's a recent transfer, 22075 is on the 30 to Fenham passing Central Station now.

34610 is also on the 22.

(30 Jun 2014, 11:38 pm)NEBCD Malarkey wrote Just spotted this Post on Facebook, and thought it would be of Interest, as the Post states that 9133 YJ62 FFB is Rumoured to be Returning to Go North East, Currently in use with Yorkshire Tiger on Service 747.

It was suggested on here months back (when it was actually trialled) that GNE could actually buy it from Go-Ahead Group at a cheaper price with it being ex-demo.

Would deliver a saving whilst adding an extra (newer) bus to the fleet, which is already in GNE spec.

Don't see it happening now if I'm honest, but hopefully I'll be proven wrong. It will be housed with other Versas coming to the fleet in this year's investment plan, should it return.

I had my mam round this morning, and she said that she saw an advert on the Tv last night about a series on tv going to start soon, but don't know the date. I did an internet search but only came up saying it will be on spring 2014 8 episodes 60 minutes long and it looks like on channel 5: The series has the working title, ‘On the Buses’ and will feature the staff of East Yorkshire Motor Services (EYMS) as they go about their work during through the busy summer of 2013. The series will feature the general operations of the company from top to bottom; with crews filming behind the scenes in the board room and the control room, the canteens, the bus terminals and out on the buses - featuring a characterful cast of drivers and of course their passengers.



The series will offer a real insight into what it’s like to be a bus driver, the pressures they have to work under and how they keep themselves smiling.



It will be Series Produced by Rob Rawlings and Executive Produced by Spencer Kelly for The Garden and Tony Moulsdale and Melanie Darlaston for GroupM Entertainment.



The programme was commisioned by Emma Westcott, Commisioning Editor Channel 5 Head of Programmes at The Garden



David Wise said, “We’re thrilled to be making our first series for Channel 5, to work with GroupM Entertainment and with East Yorkshire Motor Service’s warm and welcoming team”. The series is scheduled for broadcast in early 2014.
