I will have to check the staff toilet after it has been used everytime so that I discover who is too blame. Then a wee word in their ear will do. It reminds me of the time when someone never used the toilet brush.....hardly pleasant.


I don't know who to vote for in the local elections....I live in a Labour stronghold.

Tories ALWAYS vote for whatever is best for them. Regardless of political party

The needs of the many, or the few outweigh the needs of the one. BOLLOX! I will piss all over you low life scum, yes even on the litter filled streets of where you live! Why? It's cos I am a TORY!!!! It's what we DO!!!!



All HAIL CAMERON!

I don't much like getting up friday, having had a drink thursday.

I am not enjoying that i still can't manage to eat solids, other than strong mints. I attempted a meal that wasn't soup last night and it ended very badly, very quickly. On the plus side, thats another pound lost and my shirt that i could barely fasten before now looks pretty decent.

I am not liking the hole in my shoe....its letting in water!

You sorry lot. You orrible shower!

Public transport is shockingly bad man. I hate it....plus all the weird ones you see....that I don't mind, as I know of a few weird ones!

Can we see a draft? I love writing complaint letters. I have a belter i sent to Aviva which reaped dividends.

Wasn't the train line flooded?

i don't know mate, they tell you fuck all at the station,

here it is

To Whom It May Concern:



I’ve been a season ticket holder on northern rail for the journey between Bramley West Yorkshire into Leeds for about 6 years, so I have experienced my fair shares of delays and cancellations, but last night Wednesday the 26^th of April was probably the most shambolic, disorganised excuse for a train service I have ever known.



Let me run through this sterling example of a train service.



I arrived at Leeds station last night at 7.15pm in time for the 7.23 service to Wakefield Westgate, after about 5 after the train should of departed, the conductor announced that we were waiting for a driver and would set off when he arrived, after waiting 20 minutes and with the driver still no where to be seen, I decided to get the slightly delayed 7.37pm service to Manchester Victoria, when I got onto this train, it again was waiting for a driver, that’s two trains no drivers.



After waiting for 20 minutes on the Manchester Victoria train, the conductor announced that the driver had arrived and would be setting off shortly, then the conductor announced that the first stop on this service would be Sowerby Bridge, now Sowerby Bridge could be a nice place to visit, I may even visit one day, but not on a rainy Wednesday night, when I all want to do is go home.



So after hearing that news, and still seeing that the 7.23 hadn’t set off yet, I went for the 8.08 service to Huddersfield, After a delay of 10 minutes I was told to head to platform 3A to get the train, when I got to the platform the train consisted of one carriage, I had to check the date to make sure it wasn’t April fools day, or check that that a camera crew were not going to jump out and shout gotcha, now I’m no expert on transport logistics but even I know that one carriage isn’t going to be enough to take all the people that had been affected by the previous train not stopping.



But there is some good news, a driver had turned up for the 7.23 train, only 55 minutes late, but my hopes of getting home were dashed by it not stopping till Hebden/Sowerby bridge, I’m not too sure which one, but it definitely had a bridge in the title.



At this point I felt I was never going to get home, like Sam Beckett in Quantum Leap, but suddenly a ray of light appeared the 8.37pm service to Manchester Victoria (there’s no 23 on the hour service past 8pm) which according to the information boards and the handy train times app was on time, at 8.50pm when this train hadn’t turned up, I finally admitted defeat after waiting for one hour and thirty five minutes. I walked out of the station and boarded a bus which turned up on time, had a driver and it’s first stop didn’t have a bridge in its title. It took me the grand total of 2 hours to travel the 3 and a half miles to Bramley instead of the normal 10 minute train journey.

I’m quite expecting the usual corporate brush off, it was the wrong type of rain/the tracks were wet/the driver’s paper was wet and he couldn’t finish his crossword/you’d all gone home early as it was pouring down (delete as applicable) in response to this email, but the service was that awful last night it’s the first time in 6 years I’ve ever complained.

I like it. You will defo get the flooded tracks brush off. I honestly can't believe you didn't go for the bus earlier, you'd have been home in no time. The 42 is only on Park Row. I'm not a bus spotter by the way, i know this as it's the same stop as mine. Saying that, i see the people who use this service so understand why it would be a last resort.

this thread has defo gone up several notches suddenly

because i have to pay extra for the bus, and it is a bigger class of weirdo's that use the bus

if they had said at 7:30 there's been flooding, services have been affected, fair enough

but you get told fuck all, apart from like it or lump it

how far is Bramley from Leeds central?

I knew there had been flooding before i'd even set off home. I heard someone at said bus stop. Which confirms the fact that communication was beyond shit.

A simple sign saying delays, flooding wouldn't have been too much to ask would it?

THIS COUNTRY!

Plus it's the germs that are spread on twains and buses that annoy me. CULL the fucking lot of em! Planet Earth will get by OK....

Germs.

Brilliant stuff.



Love the Quantum Leap bit.

3 and a half miles, its not like trekking to nepal

plus it rains most of the time in britain, so the last time it rained heavily and it flooded, they could of fixed the problem then, instead of just fucking leaving it, we are seriously shit when it comes to engineering now

It's far more dangerous than that.
