Not normally the most epic of journeys. But there were major problems
on the Northern Line, so I got off at London Bridge. I took an
overground train to Charing Cross and got on a 24 to go to Victoria.


Whitehall was completely blocked off because of those protesters
again, something to do with Tamils. I think they are either for or
against them.


Why don't you find out what it's about?


It might turn out to be something more important than your journey.


Who gives a stuff what happens on an island 5000 miles away? If the
protesters are all so concerned about the place why don't they fly
over there and help sort it out instead of causing a nuisance here
and demand our govenrment "do something"? Do what exactly? Send the
gunboats to Columbo? Fscking idiots.

The decision not to give a stuff entails finding out, which was what I
suggested.

One might also find out what it is that they are asking someone to do.

It's one thing to say "my journey was disrupted by something which I
disagree with and/or consider to be pointless".

This post was "something that I can't be bothered to find out about
has disrupted my journey, but by definition it must be less important
than my journey".
