    I've heard talk of some beat combo singer called Paul McCartney. Who is this person?

    Elvis Presley was working in the Co-op recently - or at least someone who looked like Elvis.

    I knew that it was a mistake to post 'Is there an EDF thread in existence that doesn't somewhere include a discussion about whether someone or somewhere is "middle class" or "working class"?' I should have realised that it would set off another discussion about the pros and cons of being middle class or working class.

    Thanks, Penguin. I now realise why the good middle class folk of the EDF have been so distressed by the recent storms. And of course the working class spirit of "we can take it" is really what got us through WW1 and WW2.

    Accounts of sexual experiences such as these are just not called for on the EDF. Guac and Jack's right to privacy is being infringed.

    Is there an EDF thread in existence that doesn't somewhere include a discussion about whether someone or somewhere is "middle class" or "working class". Title of thread: "Loud bang - thunder?" What I want to know is whether it was a loud bang that affected middle class people more than working class people or vice versa.

    People saying "Bless!" at the drop of a hat, especially when spoken in a patronising way.

    Even worse - balding, with grey hair, ponytail, no shirt thereby revealing massive gut and three quarter length trousers.

    My use of the term "little darlings" was of course ironic.

    Our cat woke up suddenly with an alarmed expression on his face as if he was saying "How dare you spoil that lovely dream that I was having!"

    It's hearing about teenagers threatening six year olds and their parents then threatening people who dare to criticise their "little darlings" that sickens me.

    That was El Passo (sic) and its stereotypical Mexican cartoon logo.

    Whose appeal exactly? The applicant isn't going to appeal, neither is Southwark. So are you suggesting that upstanding ED residents should submit a judicial review application and if so on what grounds?
  14. Zebedee Tring
    Sadly the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, standswithfist. With parents like that, no wonder the kids turn out so appalling.

    I agree totally with ultrauk that life is for living, not moaning - a sentiment unfortunately not shared by some people on this MB who would be very unhappy if they couldn't find something to complain about.

    Are you sure that it isn't Roger Whittaker down on his luck?

    "Please alight at the nex stop for Buckingham Palace". Why not say "get off"? Masses of English speaking people don't know what "alight" means, let alone those who speak other languages. They probably think it means "set fire to".

    Again far too rational. They never used to say "station stop" 30 years ago. Was that because people were more intelligent then and didn't need to have it pointed out to them that the train wouldn't be stopping at the next station? In the same way that they didn't have to be reminded to take their belongings with them and make sure that their flies were zipped up when leaving the train.
  19. Zebedee Tring
    "The next station stop will be Milton Keynes". No, the next STATION will be Milton Keynes. We don't need to know that the next time that the train stops will be at a red signal.

    I'd tell them that your mate was a member of the Richardson gang who was renowned for his use of dentistry without anaesthetic and that he's looking for new "work" to perform. That might do the trick.
  21. Zebedee Tring
    Surely they pull in adjacent to the platform, rather than crashing into it. At least that's what I would expect a safe railway system to achieve.
  22. Zebedee Tring
    Announcements on National Rail trains that "The train will be arriving shortly into London Euston". Why "into" when "at" is a perfectly good word?

    A man in the pub where I drank today told me that it was going to be a mini Waitrose.
  24. Zebedee Tring
    People in trains who, instead of sitting next to their friends, sit opposite them and then shout to each other across the carriage. People in trains who put their feet up on the seat opposite. How would they like it they sat down on a seat and found a great dollop of crap on it from someone else's shoe?
