    Bob 'the nob' Crow was on BBC tonight giving an interview. Interviewer said to him that TFL, Metronet etc had agreed to RMT terms, Bob got a bit flustered side stepped the question and said they had no option to strike. Dont really mind the odd day strikes, but 3 days in such a way that it fecks up the whole week, and then the same planned for next week is ******* mad.

    Would love to move out of London but at moment its not an option..one day..

      I sent him this:

      Hi Bob,

      My train out of Marylebone tonight was packed with oiks who normally use the underground. I managed to get a seat but was squeezed between the young lady sitting next to me, and another young lady standing with her arse in my face.

      Thank you.

          I got into work earlier than usual this morning - left 15 minutes before I normally do, and walked for a mile and a half at the end, but caught the 822 instead of 835 train.

          Hopefully, I'll be working in Westminster next week, which is easier to get to for me.

            I hope all the striking workers lose their benefits/pensions/jobs or whatever the heck they are striking for. Losers.

            I had a pleasant walk from Waterloo into the City today, a nice change from the overcrowded stinking underground.

              I agree, except that today it was through the overcrowded stinking streets.

                Yes - I need to find my inhaler if I'm going to make this a regular thing.

                  My tube ride was actually ok today - mainline was a problem though, i don't think it's healthy to be having homicidal thoughts about people BEFORE 7am in the morning...and standing up 45 mins each way is not nice.
                  I can see disaster ahead if we have the normal signal failures/lazy arse drivers not turning up etc issues which we have at least twice a week though, fingers crossed eh

                  i hate striking tube people i hope they all lose their jobs

                    Maybe if we all hope hard enough, it'll come true
