I hate that sign in the back of cars which says "Caution - Show Dogs in Transit" as if dogs are more important than the humans in cars. The other sign that drives me nuts is "Princess on Board" often with the darling little brat in full view and unrestrained jumping up and down on the back seat. That is just the signs don't get me on the air heads who drive BMWs and Audis. It is a well known fact that both of these manufacturers fit DBIs (Driver Brain Immobilisers) as standard on all of their models.
It has always been the tradition on the underground to use different tiles at each station so that the illiterate can identify them.
That was my point really...each station should have its own character, but they missed the chance to be bold.
I've decided, after a long journey the other day, that the worst drivers these days are now Audi owners. They seem to have taken over from the BMW ****wits as the champions of driving too fast, too close, not indicating and generally acting like tossers on the road ........... (you've started something now, Godders!)
I hate 4 wheel drive and these massive cars everyone is switching to (you know, the ones that are big enough to carry a couple of sheep and 4 dogs....and are usually occupied by one woman and a kid). They have read the guff that tells them how safe they are, so they needn't worry about pushing other people off the road. On the Island parking can be tight and it can be murder to see or get out of a space when one of these monsters is sticking out.
I just found out that Brett Anderson, lead singer with Suede, has moved to Chilcompton. Cool eh? What's even stranger is that I've just been sitting in a café in Lisbon chatting to 2 Portuguese waiters about Frank Zappa and Jethro Tull!

I know such passengers usually get banned by the airline concerned...but I think it's about time all airlines joined together and did a total ban. Why should other people be inconvenienced or even be put at risk by idiots? Not being able to fly on holidays or even business for a fixed term....depending on severity of offence...might make people think. Probably connected with drink....why start drinking before you even get to your destination.
Indeed, a ban throughout airlines would seem to be a sensible censure. How they might arrive at the length of penalty I don't know. If it was FLT [sorry mate, you're temporarily a female for this example ], even a period of 3 months would be a disaster for her. But I suspect she's like most people, so a 3 year ban might do the trick. As to drink, it depends upon the individual, destination and the airline. For example, many terrified flyers calm down completely once they are slightly sozzled. As for long haul flights like to NZ, you try stopping me from refusing Singapore Airlines' offers of free whisky [all other alcoholic beverages are free too] throughout the entire flight.
Well that's the utter tosser of the year/decade competition sorted then - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-36273488 I can't even begin to find the words for this.
Yep, I'd 100% go along with that. I'll also quietly predict that he'll get more than the cost price of the new item. We'll see how many other utter tossers there are out there.
Hope Katherina doesn't decide to do this when she eventually goes! http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepag...ipment-the-scoreboard-and-even-the-DOORS.html
If I was a wealthy man, i'd buy the thing and make a big fuss about destroying it. Or use it on it's previous owner.
It's beyond comprehension. The only people that come close to being as bad are those that will buy it with pride.
At the risk of being stereotypical here, the people that turn up will probably be members of a gang, stoned out of their minds and have an IQ of about 10.
I'm having a discussion with someone on Twitter who doesn't see it as inappropriate. Trump supporter, if you were wondering.
