    The Olympics V Football

    I watched our chaps at the Olympics, I wanted them to win every event and I cheered them on TV because I couldn't get any tickets. I really enjoyed the games and thought we did very well. However I did not shout and abuse any athlete who did not win. OK I wasn't actually there but you know...

  17. Train fare rises

    Had to post this, as I am flabbergasted at what ATOC are saying in response to the 5.9% rise in fares that you poor sods have to put up with. Atoc said the fare increase would be used to pay for "new trains, faster services and better stations". 1) There won't be any new trains. Trains are...
