Otta Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I assumed they just wanted a total ban on eating. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/59343-ban-eating-campaign/page/3/#findComment-850083 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can still> smell it, years later.Oh my God, that's reminded me. I was on a 177 bus from Woolwich to Peckham on the way home from work some 12 years ago. Really pissed Irish fella sits on a fold down seat neat the front of the bus (single decker), and as we got to New Cross bus garage I heard this African fella shout "what are you doing dirty man". I looked up to see a trail of piss snaking across the floor towards my bag and my feet. The Irish fella hadn't even bothered standing up, he'd just whacked it out from where he was sitting and taken a slash.That's much worse than shaving, but until I saw your post I'd obviously blocked it out.

phobic3000 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I remember a journey back on the last train from London Bridge recently. Some guy was quietly enjoying a rather tasty smelling pasty, and this woman kept on harassing him saying "it stinks, it's inconsiderate, it's rude" he didn't really react, probably like me tends to avoid confrontation, especially when the person was actually getting quite aggressive. Eventually a woman sat on her own shouted, "Leave him alone, I like your smelly food!!" I found the whole exchange quite funny considering the carriage was practically empty. It's not every day you hear someone shouting "I like your smelly food!" I suppose you had to be there really.IMO as long as you don't leave you're rubbish on the train or bus then you can eat what you want and people need to lighten up a bit. If you don't like it get a nose plug!! Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/59343-ban-eating-campaign/page/3/#findComment-850239 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedges Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 It is currently socially acceptable to eat on public transport in this country.It is not socially acceptable to litter. SOME people do it anyway.So you ban food on public transport. What do you think the chances of those SOME people complying?Zero - thats how many. So the result is well mannered folk stop eating and are penalised. SOME folk continue to eat on the bus/train and still litter.Utterley pointless.I know. Lets start a petition against petitions. I loves me a bit of irony. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/59343-ban-eating-campaign/page/3/#findComment-850383 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruffler Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Drinking alcohol on buses is banned but some people still do it. Likewise using mobile phones while driving. If there was a ban on eating/littering on public transport people would still flout the rules because there's little or no enforcement.
