    The Kings Cross hologram-a new form of torture

    I detest her. I fairly often pass through Kings Cross, as do many people. If you had to see this once it would be OK, but when you've heard it fifty times waiting for your coffee it becomes a bit tiring. Please do not take luggage on the escalator, please use the elevators available. Along...
