Don't know about Newcastle buses but in Gateshead there are no middle doors so you have to pass the driver.

15.11.2025 16:49 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Yeah, I heard it for the first time on Race Across the World on Thursday, though it didn't take me long to work out what it means. Your post confirms what I thought.

English parent has done similar. No immediate plans to go though.

13.11.2025 17:45 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0That's something. Hope you are ok otherwise.

12.11.2025 20:26 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Almost as good as the Elastica split. A row over Missy Elliott, I think?

11.11.2025 23:32 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I did wonder whether adding two members was forced on them by the management but sounds like it came from Shaznay and Mel themselves. The All Saints song everyone forgets about was Black Coffee, which I think is their best. They really did quit on a high (first time round anyway).
11.11.2025 22:38 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I thought that too. With Romance it's less surprising as there is a gender aspect too.
11.11.2025 18:55 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Interesting the big Labour lead over reform with Sports book fans.
11.11.2025 18:52 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Thanks for sharing. I think a lot of people were wondering, including me.
11.11.2025 07:55 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0That's awful. I was old enough to remember that it was a hard time.
