ohhh_yeah 2991 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 What the fuck is wrong with some people's offspring? All of our local transit stopped on their routes and observed a minutes silence today. Later on, I went to the scene went with a group to drop off flowers & leave a message. While there I overheard a couple chatting about another arrest involving this tragedy. Confused since I only knew about the attacker, I enquired about the details. Turns out while one of the deceased was bleeding out, a homeless man on the train stole his backpack and took a ring off of his finger. When tracked down and arrested, he was wearing the wedding ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got called in for a talk about common assault because he called the police (after i walked her to her car and left) and said i'd scared him... i actually burst out laughing in the place. Sounds like a real hard man. Btw, is this just another Fish-like attempt at letting everyone know you got a lass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 47073 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 He might have thought you were playing pocket billiards whilst you were eyeballing him tbf. I'd have had you on a sexual assault charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 22402 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) Massively pissed off. Metro from longbenton broke down just before reaching the station with a broken cable trailing behind it. All the passengers on that train were evacuated, line was closed. So, walked to south gosforth to go the long way round. Changed Metro at monument and.... It's broken down between stations at walkergate. Typing this from the train which I've been on for an hour now, and it's packed. No idea how I'm going to get home, been travelling for 2 hours now to travel 2 miles! Rats cocks.

NJS 4446 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Surprised it gets that bad on the Metro - on the slightly bright side at least the weather is bearable - last bad one I had, I was stuck at Stratford for 90 mins during that warm spell in June - couple of lasses fainted and they had to give out water.

The Fish 11076 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I've heard nothing but criticism of the Metro recently. Used to be a great, free, mass transit system for Newcastle, but not long after hooking up to Sunderland it's gone to shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5572 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I like the metro but they need to finish the fucking thing and extend it to the west end. That sounds monumentally annoying btw Rents, unlucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brutal efficiency. It was absolutely worth dodging the fare when the fine was something like £10. I figured that if I was getting the Metro twice a day, 5 or 6 days a week at about £2 a journey, I could get caught twice a week and I'd still be coming out on top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 15864 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Aye fair enough, I didn't use it as often as that tbf. Bus was closer and cheaper anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 11076 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I think that's where my aversion to buses comes from. Used to be one bus every 30 minutes and it would take 45 minutes to an hour to get into town. Get unlucky with the bus and it went through Backworth adding another 15 minutes on top. Fuck buses.
