i have utmost respect for train drivers as well as pilots

[overlord]

pilots have on board equipment to land in fog , train drivers have only there knowledge of the route and there wits and instinct to find stations , red signals etc etc, hats off to them .

How hard can it be? - the rails will take them the right way anyway.

"I wonder which way it is to the station? Oh here it is - next to the tracks"

Instinct to find red signals? I reckon i'd be a great train driver then because I stop at red lights all the time in my car. It's called looking with your eyes. Heck, I don't even get paid to stop at red lights. It probably costs me money in extra fuel to slow down and accelerate again.
Thinking about it, red lights are stupid, next time I see traffic lights i'm just going to plough down the elderly lady crossing the road

As most Victoria station users will know, there is a small time delay before the doors open when the train gets in.

Occasionally, we have a guard (are they still called that?), who announces over the intercom, that this is "Due to the satelite navigation system"

This MUST be a newbies wind-up surely ?

Not exactly rocket science is it. They've probably got GPS too.

I have the utmost respect for chartered accountants. I think they rock.

Nope, as far as i know its to do with no GPS in vic station down by the trains, like you get no mobile signal, cos of the roof. And i think theres a safety thing to make sure the doors only open at stations, unless overridden

Fair enough, but can they add up in the FOG?

The announcer at Embankment tube makes me laugh. Angry? He's livid at times. Unlike the stupor-inducing one at Victoria.

The dullest voice imaginable saying "Sm-oking is not all-owed anywhere on the con-course" repeatedly. *snore*

Then why are they always so geeky looking?

Beings how Buzzer is a newly single CA, can I be of assistance and make an introduction here?

Not ALL of them are geeky looking.
Besides, it's what's on the inside that counts.

There was me thinking women wanted to be ravaged over a bonnet by a grubby muscle-bound mechanic.


Or is that just me?

Yeah!!

Fantastic bit of thread hijacking here, methinks.

Anyone fancy some special chartered accountant loving, you know where I can be contacted.

 

[Conkers]

I'm an accountant (well final year of Uni anyway) and i'm not geeky looking. Can't write any more, have to dash, I need to clean my face with Clearasil pads and then squeeze these annoying spots on my forehead. Need to find my glasses first though

No, it is just you that wants to be ravaged over a bonnet by a grubby muscle-bound mechanic.

I'd rather have a man in a shirt than overalls any day.

My accounts are already being seen to thanks.
