Probably rational, actually.


Why oh why oh why have buses now got 60% of the luggage rack taken up by a free newspaper rack ?

(obviously it's for money, but...)

what's next ? vending machines instead in place of some of the seats ?

interesting that my annoyance at the fat woman on the train who refused to make space for anyone else caused such outrage.


It's a general commuter problem - people refusing to move in, make space, squash up.


She was particularly unsociable with it. Fact she was fat did not raise my annoyance levels but her behavior / intolerance did.


I'm not particularly 'sizeist' but her general manner of behavior was unattractive.

Ha! Possibly the same person who said to me earlier this year "some of us are going to work" when I squeezed onto that same train in the morning carrying my snooker cue - as it happened I was going to a meeting and planning to get a quick game in later, but I didn't feel they deserved an explanation!

I remember when they used to drive me mad too... happy days...

Handles on doors, oh no you don't have to use them. Why not shove the door thing with your grubby paws, and watch over time as the handmarks build up.


And don't get me started on walls. My sons' mate walks up the stairs, trailing his hands grubby all over them.

turn the book around, hold stub open with right hand, fill in upside down

That'll be life then.

I was rushed through the till in the supermarket yesterday and the cashier started serving the next customer before I had packed my shopping in the bags and she had given me the receipt, didn't offer to help me pack shopping and was very abrupt. Not going back there in a hurry. Reminded me of the days of "Victor Value". No polite customer service, just rude rude rude. (mind you, the man behind me was very handsome, she probably couldn't wait to serve him)

    • Oh give it a break.  We have an MP who makes racist comments, yet our media (and what seems like this Forum) that generally hate Labour (and loved Johnson) are just out looking for the dirt. It's a move on, nothing to see here.  Particularly if she used a letting agency.
    • Hi all, I highly recommend Rob Mills Gas Safe boiler engineer, helpful and knowledgeable. contact number 07952584171    
    • I don't think a single all-inclusive URL is easily doable.  When you enter a search the system presents the result without any of one's search parameters added to the URL.  So I suggest you go to https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/search.do?action=advanced where you just need to enter the address -- use SE22 8EW -- and the  Date Received start date.  I used 1/1/2025.  The three Tesco applications, all minor things, were all made in May.  The Simple search that I'd done previously had no time limit, and didn't include anything else that might have been from Tesco in the last two years. Incidentally, when I searched on the address 29-35 Lordship Lane it did not pick up the Tesco applications, which were held as 29 - 35 Lordship Lane Grrr!
