they even wrote to me to say I didn't 'touch out' and that means paying full whack - I didn't even use the thing that week. Either way, I don't care, I mainly use it to go to the pubcommunistworkethic wrote:yeah that's what they want you to think.....Abdoulaye's Twin wrote:doesn't bloody work then, much like anything IT the government tries.communistworkethic wrote:oystercards were just created by MI5 to track your movements

If driving is so wonderful, you can ask why traffic jams cost billions in lost business a year. Last week, Birmingham to Newcastle took six and a half hours (normally three).The train would have been a much better option.
Public transport's nowhere near as bad as people think. But if people want to believe cretins like Jeremy Clarkson and his pipsqueak pal, then so be it.

I've been pishing about with buses for the past couple of weeks while I was waiting to get a new car and although it's not been too bad, I'm looking forward to shaving 40 minutes off my journey home from tomorrow onwards when I get my new car (though I'll probably still get the 'match bus' to the Reebok on Sunday)

Driving is wonderful. You dont realise how convenient it is until you cant and are forced to use public transport.ratbert wrote:If driving is so wonderful, you can ask why traffic jams cost billions in lost business a year.

Well, King's Cross appears - but only because I occasionally get the train into St Pancras from Market Harborough. Other than that it's all the usual boring business shit. I can't honestly see Spooks blowing away a few Arabs on the strength of it.Abdoulaye's Twin wrote:I'll let you use your imagination, there may be youngsters aboutZulus Thousand of em wrote:Depends on how you define salubrious.Abdoulaye's Twin wrote:the more salubrious parts of London?Zulus Thousand of em wrote:They'll find my file fascinating.communistworkethic wrote:oystercards were just created by MI5 to track your movements

That's a different line into Kings Cross (GNER). Mine is Midland Mainline into St Pancras. It'll be some wanabbee bastard stalking me.David Lee's Hair wrote:Hmmm sure I've seen a man in full 19th century army gear in the Flying Scotsman

Sounds like enough to invade where you live and invite the Americans along for a bit of action to meZulus Thousand of em wrote:

Apart from the fact that the Americans would probably pitch up somewhere in Scandinavia.Abdoulaye's Twin wrote:Sounds like enough to invade where you live and invite the Americans along for a bit of action to meZulus Thousand of em wrote:
