    Needless to say, there were a few Bobs in the office.
    Yep, I've seen more than a few of those signs.

    Although some of the cleanest bogs I've seen recently were at Bobpro.

        Spitting is quite common among the lower classes, just watch a football match.

        But spitting is one thing, having a significant quantity of phlegm TO spit is another. If it's there, you want it out but is it genuinely a medical thing?

            We get that here too.

            Some of the esteemed customers do appear to have read the notices that have been installed in the traps because the problem seems to have decreased since the year before last.
            Which brings us back to the point that if no-one explains the cultural differences, they've no way of knowing.

            Maybe a "no flobbing in the sink" sign would do the trick.

              I usually love b$%^ing about bobs ... but this subject makes me seriously sick. Just as I was enjoying my dinner ...
              If UKIP are the answer, then it must have been a very stupid question.

                    Who you gonna call? The Phlegm Buster:

                    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                      I saved this thread until I had finished my breakfast, lunch, tea and supper.

                      I pity those who have to work alongside Bobs. Still, it could be worse.... a call center perhaps.

                      Now, if you'll excuse me.... chhooooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr........ puuuuttttttttt
