    For me one of the great characteristics of Britishness was the ability/desire to be civil to one another. Seems to have fallen by the wayside these days. We are becoming something I don't recognise or more importantly like.
    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          Churchy and the Prawn have just made it quite obvious to everyone in my office that I'm totally on the skive Very good chaps

          Bagpuss...dont despair hun. It's not as bad as you think - humanity is still out there, and it'll find you if you let it. The world is still very beautiful, as is this country - just look a little harder

            to the other point..He could have had a longer break if he just said "I'm picking up there in a minute"

            Maybe my expectations are too high, but I'm sure years ago my experience would have been better.
            I think if he had enough brain to have told you what you expected rather than answering the direct questions he would be doing more than just driving the bus.
