*Definition: A thread coupling is where two threads appear on top of each other in the section index and form a humourous continuation between themselves.

You featured because you had the most recent post on the thread at the time; I simply copied and pasted the relevant pairing of lines. I'm surprised nobody has posted any other thread couplings yet - there must have been some in the past few days, surely?

Interesting that as at 1329 today, in the Infrastructure & Stations forum, Blackpool-Manchester Electrification was followed by Stations where a parliamentary service is probably sensible.

Seems a pity after spending all that money. :)

Crossrail 2 route alterations (Multi-page thread 1 2 3)

Blackpool - Manchester Electrification (Multi-page thread 1 2 3 ... Last Page)

That's a bloody big alteration!

In this very forum,

Today is the day to go to your local polling station and vote. But first,

Rugby League

Sport being more important than politics? :lol:

I know, pretty epic!

I've currently got 'Now playing.....perfect thread couplings'

So I've got an example of THIS actual thread living up to it's name!

Just been idly looking through old threads to see if any jumped out for inclusion, and the following pairing from page 51 of General Discussion may qualify;-

Things to do in Long Preston/Gargrave?....

Ricin sent in letter to President Obama

Not that I cast any aspersions on the inhabitants of those parishes.
