Moo cow Christmas

Oh what fun it is still to ride London transport! It's even more fun being told you have to wait 30 minutes for your next train as I was this morning for the Hammersmith and City line. Excuse: staff shortage. Bollocks to that! And there were minor delays on most other lines. Those Olympic Games in 2012 really will be fun won't they! On another train, Transport for London had the audacity to have revenue inspectors. When asked to produce their ticket, I think commuters should calculate the amount of their time Transport for London has wasted of their day due to its inefficiency and force those inspectors to wait the same amount of time. Seems pretty fair to me. Oh, and don't forget the power failure Friday night that seemed to have closed central London Piccadilly line stations. I shan't bother to contact their press office. How long would I have to wait for their response?

Politicians should be made to use the services they cock up at least twice a week. Go with your minders, put on a disguise or they'll be lynched, well, not in London. Too much apathy. Moo - did I hear a heard of docile cows trying to board an overcrowded train? Don't forget, studies showed that the temporatures on the underground in summer would not be legal to transpot cattle. And now we have a new game. Suspect packages on the underground. Both the Richmond and central London district line were delayed because of this today. You don't need bombs any more do you? Leaves and staff shortages are always a good excuse too. Oh, and more Fascist revenue inspectors on the Piccadillly line this afternoon. Get a life!
