Ok, ive just returned from a mad dash around Manchester town centre - im tired and hungry so i decided to share with u all my morning :)
Ok, so i got up @ 7 because i needed to walk to the train station to catch a train (no shit) Into Manchester, to then catch a tram into Bury to go to my College. So i got my ticket, and things were looking good. Arrive into Manchester 10 mins late, i though its okay, i can deal with that. Then things really took off..
i bought miself a return tram ticket to bury for £5:00 (I KNOW!) @ a machine. To only find the fkin doors closing on my face and making myself look a right nobed running down the platform for the tram. i later found out from this nice lady (bless) that trams aint running to bury untill october! (THANKS) so i then go on the hunt for a bus..
I find a bus stop, and 3 busses with Bury clearly stated on front drove right past me!! i swear if i was a gal with huge tats they would of stopped.. i thought fk this, im going home!
So i got a ticked bk to my area, and it stated on the ticked - "PLATFORM 5, 9:29AM"
ok np4me.
9:30 - reet, should be here any second.
9:35 - hmm, mabye running late
9:42 - ok.. wats happening
9:45 came so i decided to ask the train man (yey) and he said it left @ 9:31 on platform 4..
WHAT?! it says platform 5.. he says to me "oh, thts odd.. well its left, ur gonna have to catch the southport train @ 10:10
great.. so i grab myself a nice latte and hop onto the train. BUT to end the day, on my way home i start txtin my (imaginary ofc) GF, telling her about my day, when i stand in fkin Dog shite! not impressed..
and now im home!! i thought ill share with u all of my exciting morning :):)
Motto: Public Transport sucks balls, and dog owners should really pick up theirs dogs shit.. morons
/FLAME ON

Traveled almost 800 miles in 2 trips, this is the 3rd and I probably have to do it on Thursday as well >:{
(M15 6UU) !
Made me lol! 8)
I've not had much problem with transport other than:
When I wasn't able to drive (legally) I would catch a bus down to the gigs I go to, it takes 1hr and 30 mins in total to get there (25 mins by car) and the last bus was at 10pm so I would miss the headliners -_-
not a happy panda
