    Things in living memory which seem very anachronistic now

    There's a place in Lewisham that specialises in black magic and voodoo, to help you with your health. Voodoo is used to help you with financial matters (!). Oh, they do love spells too. I wonder if there is a money back guarantee?!

    The worst TV series finale

    Here it is, starts in the last two scenes, the final one being in a real railway carriage. The commentator in the video isn't happy too!

    The worst TV series finale

    Will chip in with another one, Psychoville (from Shearsmith and Pemberton -LOG) . Brilliant first series and superb halloween special but the second series not so - they killed off a character per episode. Finale.. well .. very poor. I still say when someone picks the post up 'Is there...

    Antisocial behaviour on buses: Have we given up?

    Never had any problem with old dears- and the chat cant be quite interesting to a certain extent. One was 'I have already lent you £5000 this year, why do you need more money?' and the other that sticks in my mind was 'Yes, I have been to toilet properly this morning, the doctor says its these...

    Antisocial behaviour on buses: Have we given up?

    This one really annoys me, and they always talk at top note too.The thing is, these conversations seem to be mainly small-talk, it's like 'Look at me!' There was a girl, again at top volume on to the credit card company as it as hadnt been activated, they read out the card number and CVV! I...

    Should trains have yellow rear ends to reduce collisions?

    On yellow ends, I thought they were implemented for track workers only, after a few fatalities; - not for trains.
