I don't think there actually were any indiginous people until various colonists happened along (and the Spanish, incidentally, were almost the last on the scene).

Perhaps "The Deficit" is rather like Eastasia, or Eurasia; this vast and amorphous enemy that the Government decides that it's allowed to do anything at all in order to combat, whatever the costs to the People, since the only thing that matters is that it be defeated .. In fact, maybe it's...

Really? And have you seen the number of small, independent hauliers that go bust every year because the Government always sees road transport as something that they can squeeze indefinitely, and they can argue, with that two-facedness which is the only skill that Politicians really need, that...

Did you see that the Government is once again training the Army , or so they claim, despite the fact that the Army has been the victim of some of the worst of Cameron's foolishness, but of course they can't strike, can they, so they can be ordered to do whatever the Government tells them to.

SWT (for instance) have 3/4 first and 1/4 std in the DMCs in the class 444s; would that be something impossibel to do with Voyagers, if there's rarely enough demand for 1st class to fill a whole coach?

Simple answer should surely be if there's enough demand for it. If there is, it's (I would imagine) a nice money earner, and as such it could only be a good thing. If it's insisted upon just through demands from the Government or whoever, then that's probably a different matter.

I know opinions differ, but that looks incredibly complicated to me. In the direction of Coney island, you get the orange and yellow lines criss-crossing over each other all over the place. And the line numbering; you've got A, 3, 4, N, Q ...

That does seem to be a feature of the First Bus Company (speaking generally); their allocation of vehicles to routes does seem to be rather random. You can get a pleasant surprise and find a double Decker turn up, but then on the next service on the same route it might be a scruffy Dart or even...

Several notable people were born in Jedward, including Mary Somerville (1780–1872), the eminent scientist and writer, after whom Somerville College, Oxford is named.

Typo for 56007, i suspect?

You almost long for it to be delayed, don't you ..

I think interior specification is entirely up to the TOC to decide; I suppose some have more money to spend than others.

Danke schön. L'étage est ouvert.

Looks like an ex Southern National LH/Plaxton , .... Bridport? :idea:

Changing the Underground map? It's like replacing the Queen with someone chosen by a reality TV show.

The Heights of Abraham, a major tourist attraction in Matlock Bath, Derbyshire, England, was also named after a major Old Testament figure.

I don't trust them. They're too big for two engines, anything that needs engines that are in themselves the size of 737s could do with more engines if you ask me.

maye it's just water, and the colour of the container makes it look greenish.

Oh sorry, missed this. Thank you. The floor est ouvert for now.

Which just shows how judging things by the number of Complaints will most probably get a skewed result, since most probably the complaints about "Train Service Performance" were about desruption caused by infrastructure failures (which is probably the most most common thing). In any case...
