No the rule is that if 2 people from the same family are on the bus the more senior of the 2 gets the seat, as is proper. The younger one (even if they are an adult) however has to sit on the elder?s lap so as not to take up other people?s seats.

Then maybe your chubbiness may be FAT to someone else?

I reckon if I met Roger Moore on a bus, he standing, I sitting I'd get up and offer my seat to him.

He'd charmingly refuse, but I'd insist saying it was a matter of principle on my part to offer my seat to a senior citizen.

He'd accept my offer with effusive thanks and I'd demur saying that there was no need and that I was no saint.

At which point we'd both make full eye contact and both chant the riff from The Saint DU DU DU DU DER DEEEER and Roger would mime looking up at the cartoon halo as he used to do at the beginning of each show.

Generally thought by most to be his very finest eyebrow work, by the way.

Anyway, the person next to him gets up, I take their seat and Roger regales me with stories about what a complete nuisance Richard Harris was on the shoot of The Wild Geese all the way to Waterloo Station.


If it's Sean Connery though I wouldn't bother. He can go and bloody scratch as far as I'm concerned.

What has that got to do with the price of fish?


Are you an offended fatty by any chance, karter?

LMFAO! This is hilarious!


I'm so glad I saw this, as I was feeling so down in the dumps from Cath Balan's animal cruelty threads...


I get sat on by fat people all the time. I think they take advantage, because I don't take up my whole seat! It's either that or I have somebody elbowing me while they eat or read their newspaper. Urgh! I hate being touched by strangers! I feel violated!!

Let just add a note of caution to Giggi's very sensible proposition that a child should be seated on an adult's lap in order to free up a seat for a standee.

Should Roger Moore and his son Geoffrey be sitting on the bus don't expect Roger to take Geoffrey on his lap, Geoff is fully-growed now and his weight could play hob with Roger's knees. Not that Geoff's fat or anything, just sturdy.

Mind you, why isn't he giving his seat up instaed of expecting his old dad to cause irrepairable damage to his legs by by 'lapping' him.

Just who the hell does he think he is? The bloody insufferable pup, with his towering sense of entitlement.


Anyway if Sean Connery is standing on the bus, kick him in the slats. B@stard.


Edited because my spelling suffers when I get a bit worked up.

Thinking about it if Forsyth and Corbett were sitting on the bus together, would it be in order to expect Bruce to take Ronnie on his lap to make room for a 'standee'.

I'd say yes, but then I will admit to not giving a toss about Brucie's knees as opposed to Roger's.

Mind I'm sure that the two of them would then launch into an 'improv' of a vent act and entertain all the passengers, I reckon even the older standees would forget their aching knees and instead be clutching their aching sides at the free mirth-fest the two old golfing Water Rats would be providing (all except Sean Connery of course, he'd be pointedly staring out of the window and tut-tutting under his breath, the jive-ass turkey).


Mind I'd still dob Brucie in to Big Vern and advise him to offer violence to the pencil-neck mofo.

    • With fibre you are paying for the speed, which is the number, yours is 300 so if you did a lot of gaming, for example, you would want the fastest possible.  If it's just office work or maybe streaming on Netflix you likely won't need as fast, but, if there are a lot of people in your house all doing their own thing on different devices, then faster speeds are better.  I don't rely on my Wi-Fi much other than when I am using my mobile.  I use Ethernet cables to connect up everything, I Have one cable running from my router, along the skirtings and through a hole I drilled in the wall to another room.  I have attached the plusnet speed guide which gives you an idea of how it works.   
    • I'd reread what you posted and try to summarise.  It just comes across as a rant.
    • Just shows, to me, once proud to be a citizen of UK.. now.. well if we pay/contribute to services - nhs, police, fire etc and folk who have made this there home - no matter what creed or culture.. for the love c of God, can someone  please explain to me.. how we have working royals who like them or not, have tried and continue to actually support and make a change and then we have Andrew.. who just destroys everything.. not just him, or royalty but his own children..  I had great admiration for The Queen - and respect.. as have a huge number of people.. but.. these old traditions where gosh.. live rent free and can’t get chucked out until I believe 2070? From what I scanned..well he has and continues to have it all.. has to go thru what old rules? Etc.  doubt very much he has even kept the upkeep maintenance up on his abode.. and do the shite keeps on pulling up.. What has Andrew done for UK or for that matter since he was 20?? Do please tell me       Totally off topic, before anyone jumps down my throat.. I just do not get how anyone is proud to be British at this point in time. Whoever is in power, seems to be able to help themselves to the public purse with no redress at all - Covid is a great example of lining of pockets.. Millions  given to Rowanda, so one is led to believe, to help with refugee problem and one can’t get a plane load off!  I simply do not get it at all. Use of food banks in UK growing yearly, homeless as well, nhs, police, fire service etc all on their knees..        
    • Have applied the green roof at a number of properties and no issues you are concerned about detected. Have issues with cats defecating in the vicinity, however, they are not selecting the green roof specifically. Use decent compost, slow release fertiliser specific for green roofs, and lay it methodically not leaving blank patches. It looks amazing when cared for and adds value.
