Christmas Won`t Be The Same Again!!!
 
Because mourning is (if you know anything about the subject) the PUBLIC
marking
of one's loss.


It's only a bleeding bus.


Your point being?

Does mourning the loss of this icon really offend some small-minded

individuals
so much that idiotic comments have to be made by those so offended?


Surely this is hypocrisy?


Not at all: can you not see the difference between being offensive (deriding
those who like the Routemaster) and simply pointing out that those sentiments
might be better left unsaid?

If you read that someone mourns the loss of the Routemaster (as wrote the
person who started this thread) and you violently disagree, that's fine but to
criticise the original poster, or his sentiments is simply churlish and
unnecessary.

If you dislike the Routemaster, by all means start a thread on the subject, but
why be so crictial of those, and there are a very large number of us, who
regret its loss? What have you gained by so doing?

Marc.
