My jaw literally dropped to the ground when I read about this in the papers. How sad and pathetic that someone felt the need to complain about an innocent 43 year old film that's brought joy to millions. :evil:
I'd love it if someone punched Claude Littner after being interviewed. Must be truly terrifying having an interview with him. :lol:
Fingers crossed that Jordan is outed as the parasite!
I've always liked Metroline's old red and blue livery. Very simple livery, but it stood out from the crowd in London, and looked very good indeed on just about everything they operated. In fact, I liked most of the 80% red liveries that were used, until TFL's ego ruined everything. :evil:
I'm...
Same. I want anyone apart from Jordan to win it this year. His business plan, to me, screamed out "ponzi scheme" when I was watching it. How he didn't get fired on Wednesday is a mystery that may never be solved. :p
Is it bad that I roared along with the crowd when Vettel's car broke down? :p
I'm not gonna blame Pirelli entirely, I see the fault of the tyre failures down to a number of factors, including the fact that a safety change was blocked by a number of teams. I'm sick of Pirelli bashing, quite...
Arctic Monkeys were absolutely fantastic on the Friday, easily the best British band of the last 10 years, but the Stones blew them out of the water. I was shocked to see just animated Mick Jagger still is on stage, and equally shocked how Keith Richards still defies medical science with his...
Another superb episode, though that situation with the N25 about halfway in was hairy, to say the least.
Got to love Londoners, they're such a brilliant bunch of people. I'm glad I can say I am one of them, even if I don't live there anymore. :)
Absolutely dreadful news, but the good thing is that it appears they've caught the cancer at a very early stage, so the likelyhood of him winning the battle is increased.
How I managed to write that post without realising that you can catch C2C to destinations out of the capital is quite embarassing. :oops:
In my case, I was heading the other way, to Fenchurch Street, so it seemed unusual to me.
Coming into West Ham station, there are ticket barriers at the entrance, but there are also Oyster readers on the way to the C2C platforms, which I found unusual. I'm not sure why they are there, as there are no further barriers within the station or on the way to the District/Jubilee platforms...
Throughout its entire history, Lowestoft Corporation had much less operations than that of Eastern Counties. For some reason, the corporation were not allowed to expand their services away from the old north-south tram route in the eastern part of town, whereas EC started serving the lucrative...
One route I want to cover soon is the 379, which must be a contender for the shortest London bus route. It only runs between Chingford station and Yardley Lane estate, which is about 1/2 a mile away, if that.
Other routes that I've got my eyes set on covering soon include the W15, the 330...
Thankfully, the Welsh vampire survived. I actually want him to win, he's absolutely hilarious.
This is the point where the series does get somewhat tougher. All of the weak and crap candidates have been fired by this point IMO.
They should really think about building double deck trolleybuses instead of investing in more single deckers. South Yorkshire PTE proved you can convert a bog-standard Dennis Dominator into a trolleybus, so I can't see any reasons against building some E400 trolleys. :p

One of the driving cars from 508201 is in a hell of a state at Eastleigh. This was taken some two months ago...
How long have the Connex-livered units been out of traffic for now?
I know the Chingford-Liverpool Street service is normally operated with 315s, but I occasionally see 317s on the route. Are these actually allocated/used on the Chingford services, or are they just heading to and from the sidings at Chingford. It definitely seems a more common occurance at weekends.
