steam train over Half moon lane bridge
njc97 replied to SteveT's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Dez, being pedantic that isn't the real orient express, the real one runs from Strasbourg to Vienna: http://www.seat61.com/OrientExpress.htm *puts notebook away and zips up anorak* -

It's the "orient express" service probably. Although as Dez mentions, it's a bit of a con - they have a diesel at the back to push it along! -
I've heard the same reason as given by PR. And in the run up to Christmas the number of casuals goes up (as RM gets busy) so the number of undelivered parcels similarly rises. However over here in Nunhead we have a lovely postie who comes twice every day, once with parcels and once later with letters. Only downside is he's got me out of the shower twice already this week.

PCSO's stopping and fining cyclists (on ED Road)
njc97 replied to d803cn's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Cdonline - in my experience it's the yoof, the mummies, fit young people on racing bikes, middle aged men in suits and once, the city of london police. The yoof are generally the best as your average teenager on a bmx can stop and change direction remarkably quickly. -

Rockets - are you expecting sympathy? You were breaking the law and were, by the sounds of it, sarcastic and rude when this was pointed out to you. Phillyboy - why shouldn't pedestrians cross where they want? Now crossing without looking, that's another matter....
