So the things I posted - the blocked dot matrix indicator and the driver not bothering to wait - were indicative of high intellect on the part of the staff then? Hmm , interesting.

It's the way you tell 'em! -- Colin Rosenstiel- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Admittedly, I am often the first to point out the grammatical mistakes of others, but this should not be allowed to obscure the valid point being made by Boltar about L.U.L. and its staff. Any organisation that has room in its ranks for the likes of Bob Crowe is fatally flawed. But, more to the point, about bloody-minded staff: a few weeks ago, a particularly bolshie specimen was in charge of a Westbound, late-night District Line train. All along the route, from Temple to Earl's Court, the train had been advertised as an Ealing Broadway train. At Earl's Court, the driver announced "This train is now calling at all stations to Parson's Green" - as the doors were closing! He must have got a particularly big hard-on when he saw literally hundreds of passengers getting out at West Brompton, in a particularly heavy rain shower. Marc. |

Any organisation that has room in its ranks for the likes of Bob Crowe is fatally flawed. You think Bob Crow is a LUL employee? *I think you'll find he's a full time union employee and LUL has little choice put to deal with his union in collective bargaining. The other point here is that he is simply the figurehead - it is the union exec who take the decisions re settlements etc. There's been a bit of a shortage of gratuitous abuse of Bob Crow lately, so this was probably just redressing the balance. Have you noticed what he's done to the weather lately? |

Picking up on minor points of grammar - the last resort of the terminally stupid who have nothing else to say. Still it was nice to have you back moaning about LUL. Sensible views about bendy buses came as an enormous shock. Normal service is now resumed. B2003 |
