Especially as it'll be "Britain’s first new underground railway in decades", so there are no workers available with recent experience of tunnelling in, say, London. Huh? Crossrail, HS2 and the Northern line extension all have significant London tunnels. Is this national "fail to spot sarcasm day", or what? For you, vigorously participating in usenet threads is a full-time occupation, as a substitute for the paid work which you'd much rather be doing. For most of the rest of us, uk.r is something we dip into in idle moments, and we don't carefully analyse every post for sarcasm. For example, I'm currently sitting in the lounge in Vientiane airport, sipping an early beer, and will soon be taking off. I won't be checking uk.r until at least tonight. I hear that Vientiane has some impressive French colonial architecture, though narcotics abuse there is more obvious. Last month central america, this month is east asia. You need to learn some geography, even if your fear of flying and xenophobia stop you actually seeing the world. I've not been to Central America for several years, and have yet to visit most of the Central American countries. So you're on the run from the Central Americans as well... ;-) |
