endieinreekie Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I think his point was that the term 'clap' was being used instead of 'stroke'. Clap would imply standing up and giving the dog a round of applause. Which no animal deserves. Unless of course it rips the UPS guy's podsack off and spits it back in his face while rolling helplessly on the ground in massive amounts of pain. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They deserve more recognition than some humans tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IainMorton Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 People who think it's a good idea to get on the train during rush hour with a bike/pram/dog etc... Or pensioners who get on the bus and seem to take ages to get their pass out the wee holder they have, put it onto the ticket reader and then take the ticket out the machine. The last thing you need after a day at work! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Lanarkshire Jag Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Ordered some stuff from Rymans last Friday afternoon. Was over £30 so I qualified for free "next day delivery" It didn't arrive on Saturday, so I naturally assumed it'd arrive Monday. Next working day and all that. Didn't arrive. Got an Email Tuesday morning saying my order had been "delayed" Got an Email last night saying it had been dispatched and gave me a tracking ID. Put tracking ID in their "tracker" and it says "no parcel found". Resigned myself to sitting in all day waiting for a parcel that may or may not arrive 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 People who think it's a good idea to get on the train during rush hour with a bike/pram/dog etc... So, people with prams who, like you, are on their way to work, should not be allowed to take their children to nursery first? My morning commute is dreadful, and frankly, it's down to people who have an attitude like you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm an equal opportunities hater. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa Cuddy Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Don't talk shite, It's not just before work either and it's not just prams. It's not shite. It's a sodding nightmare some mornings trying to get the youngest to nursery, especially when some people take umbrage at being asked to move a few seats further along the bus because they were stupid enough to sit in the pram/wheelchair space. Also, it was you that originally specified rush hour. As for bikes, ride the b*****d things. That's what they're for! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was pumping a young lady called babs a few years ago who would even now be in her late 20s. Unfortunately she was the absolute opposite of the sainted miss Windsor.

You can't barely find a pot to stand on the train let alone a seat then you'll have some idiot trying to squeeze on with a pram/bike/suitcase ect... They should be banned during rush hour. After all they don't allow OAPs use the travel cards during these times for a reason. For someone to say it's me that's makes traveling in the morning unbearable, nonsense. I guarantee most on the train would agree who causes the problems. I don't get the bus so I can't comment on that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get the bus so I can't comment on that. It's not the fact that commuters are there that causes problems for people with pushchairs. It's the attitude problem of some that make it such an ordeal. He also never said it was "you" but people with attitudes like that. Unfortunately, those with small children have somewhere to be as well, even in rush hour. I'm afraid it's tough titties if you don't like it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~~~ Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) Prams/bikes/suitcases, even dogs. That's the problem not just with children in prams that can't even be arsed to fold them up. that's the problem. So don't try and turn it into a moan about mums and dads. Well I wouldn't get offended if someone asked you to move if you're blocking the doors or walkway. God forbid if you need to get off in an emergency.

Lisa Cuddy Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Blocking doors and emergency exits is another matter altogether and isn't what you said initially. If you get offended at being asked to move from there, you're an idiot! Banning them from rush hour trains is ridiculous. What's the alternative? "I can't work. I'm not allowed on public transport because I have a pushchair". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not allowed on public transport because I have a pushchair". See, again I need to point out it's not just prams that are the problem. And on a busy train these people can only cause obstructions due to very little space being available. So yes I would ban them during rush hour on certain routes. The obvious ones that are going to be very busy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invergowrie arab Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 What about people with rucksacks etc should they be banned too? Transport for London probably have a view in this 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
