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)

    • I’d also recommend Paul for electrical work. He came round the other week to help us out with a handful of jobs (installing an SPD, new light fittings, installing a dimmer switch, a bathroom fan). His quote was cheaper than what I got from others, he turned up on time and he got the job done quickly. 
    • We’d like to add our recommendation for Lukasz and team at L&L Building & Maintenance.  Lukasz has recently installed a roof terrace for us, and we’ve found him a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We contacted about a dozen recommended builders and found his quote very competitive. During the build his team delivered quality work, they were no hassle in the house at all and they kept the place tidy every day. The terrace looks great, and we’re very happy customers. What stood out in particular was Lukasz’s responsiveness, right from discussing quotes to follow-up during the build. Lukasz often checked in and was always available when we needed him.  We’ll definitely contact Lukasz again for future building work and we’d happily recommend him to others looking for a reliable builder.   Lukasz Kugaczewski L&L Building & Maintenance 07926651960 [email protected] www.landl-build.com
    • Yes, I did mention the train, which I now get from East Dulwich to Guys instead of the 40. Depends where in East Dulwich you are starting from which route is easiest! I think it is probably lack of staff rather than lack of hospitals which is the problem?
    • What can be done? How about reporting it to the police?
