Meenzer 15853 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Aye, I'm doing a bit of stomping around the Lakes and Peaks this weekend so thought I should probably pop in and check that his girlfriend still exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, find us a place for some spiffing Eggs Benedict at the weekend, there's a good chap. http://www.altrinchammarket.co.uk/ ? Dunno if they do eggs benedict, because I haven't checked, because I don't like eggs, because eggs are a chicken's period. Oh, where are you actually staying?

Used to be a great, free, mass transit system for Newcastle, but not long after hooking up to Sunderland it's gone to shit. My mate works on it. Reckons it's been falling into disrepair for years and only the last couple of years has there been any serious plans for a massive overhaul with some finances secured for 20 years. Reckons it was close to closing down in the near future without it. Guess Tyne & Wear public transport not as important as other places and systems elsewhere?

The rolling stock is getting on 40 years old but was only designed for 30. It's bespoke so getting replacement parts is difficult. Basically the trains are held together by gaffer tape. I've heard they want to replace the trains with some shitty off the shelf trains like Manchester's metrolink. Expect them to be a lot less comfortable than presently. Even then the government won't fund replacements except through PFI, which will cost a fortune . That model isn't countenanced in London, where transport expenditure per capita is more than ten times the NE. Oh, found out today my metro pass has gone up 16%. My pay has gone up 1%. Fucking cock knockers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohhh_yeah 2991 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 My wallet feels heavier thanx to a pompous bloke from "Adelaide"! Came into the bar with a righteous attitude and left without his lighter. Found it while sweeping. Took it to have it appraised and as soon as they offered me sixteen bills, I almost snapped their hand off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
