arrgh been trapped on 185 for more than an hour (Lounged)

[bawdy-nan]

it's now 2 hours since I left work in central London and i'm now trapped on a diverted 185 inching down the walworth road - what's going on?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Camberwell New Rd closed off due to accident.

Walk?

[bawdy-nan]

oh no - I feared it might be

[HonaloochieB]

Blimey BN, that PGC's a pisstaker and no mistake.

They see you walking they'll have your Freedom pass back off you quicker than you can say "around the rugged rock the ragged rascal ran" five times.

Sit tight BN, hope you have a good book with you, if not look around for someone who looks as though they might have read one and engage them in conversation.

Hitting the post message button with a large Perroni and thinking of you.

I do indeed have a good - though sad book but only 30 pages left - yikes

[HonaloochieB]

Eke out each sentence then BN, I find naming the punctuation marks helps.

If that doesn't slow you down enough then start greeting each one.

"Oh, comma, been seeing a lot of you lately"

"Question Mark, how are you"?

"I say -, you're cutting a dash these days. And I see you're hanging out with comma, too. Anything me and Question Mark should know about"?

It works for me.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

I see you're talking through your colon again HB.

I got off at East Street and walked

[Sue]

But too lazy to walk :))

Not lazy Sue, determined to see it through to whatever bitter end was waiting.

Bloody-minded some might call it, but it's the spirit that carried us through the Blitz.

Unlike that shirker Quids.

If you have a horrble feling about it BN, then lay it to one side for now.

Read a copy of Viz instead.

"April"...."APRIL"....are you reading Enid Blyton or something Bawdy?

[bawdy-nan]

I'm reading Revolutionary Road - haven't seen the film but its a lot like Mad Men (the book).

[Applespider]

Suddenly I'm really glad that I hopped on a train to Peckham Rye from Victoria rather than waiting for the 185

[Tony.London Suburbs]
