Have we gone too PC? Manchester to be called Personchester, or the Isle of Man becoming Isle of People!?!
What is the world coming to? The images rights for Man CIty and Man United would go down the pan! Ironman would have no place, Mansfield, mandatory? Man handle, manner, mannequin?
What about sheep then? sheet, sheen, shelf? Where would we be?
Should white and black be banned too? Is sun burnt being racist?
It’s farcical and it’s annoying me.
I couldn’t believe the cheek of ‘the SouthWest Train spokesman’ in TheLondonPaper yesterday. The article states that London’s trains have the most standing up people on any journey route. The spokesman said if they didn’t want to stand...’Then they could get another soon’..!
I travel to work at the time I have to travel, I choose to stand on the train as I would be late otherwise. I could go 20 minutes earlier, but get to work 40 minutes too early and there isn’t another train that leaves my station that I could get!
I’ve decided if you want anything doing in August, it’s a bad idea, holiday season ruins agencies, last week i was off with a fair few people, and even more seem to be off this week. I reckon if the companies knew only half the staff were working on a brief and not all the usual suspects, they should be entitled to some kind of refund, yes I know that sounds a bad idea, but if you wanted Juan Cabral to work with your company, and he happened to be away that week and you got Jimbob instead, what would you think? Not that anyone at Fallon is rubbish to be fair but he’s an easy rememberable name.
I've been away a week and it’s still here, no banning from Blogger just yet!
I’m not even sure what to say
almost so I might as well recap the highlights of last week.
I noticed many strange things last week, including a toilet at the entrance to our road we were staying on. But my favourite odd thing last week was the local adverts. On a budget but brilliantly thought up. The funniest one was outside a pub. 1 side said come in to this lovely pub, the other said Steep hill? Thirsty? That is playing to your strengths. This hill which I waked up 3 or 4 times in the week to get to our cottage took about 15 minutes to walk up and was difficult for a car to drive up, never mind a person without breaking sweat. Sadly though, this advert didn’t work on me. partly because the pub itself looked run down and pokey!
The second great thing I did last week was going to a little village called Beer, where they have the Beer Social Club, the Beer Luggers Club and Beer Head, the caravan park. So many jokes could be pulled on that little village, it could even get sponsored by Heineken or something.
Oh and finally, heres a red squirrel, thankfully not to scale.
If we all held our breath for 30 seconds could we stem the flow of exhaling carbon emissions or would all the trees die from the over supply of CO2 created when we breathe out?
Water water everywhere and overpriced at best, I hate being mean, but train stations do love to fleece you for your money when you are in need. Being 20 minutes early for my train and needing a drink, I went to 4 shops to see how much a basic bottle of water would be. WH Smiths, Whistlestop, Boots and M&S were all wanting me to pay for a 500ml bottle in excessive of £1.30! and I know thats just because it is a train station. The worst thing was coke was cheaper than water, how is that possible? global warming makes more water surely! I however decided 750ml of lucozade was a better deal and thus my needless rant at water, and yes the Lucozade tastes so much nicer.
