Reply to: Bloody hell - Bob Crow

You'd think after his death the Tube Strikes would be less...

BBC News - Tube strike: Commuters suffer 'severe disruption'

I'm kinda glad im not in the city anymore.

In preparation for Bob Crow's funeral, London underground are going to cancel all trains on the day of the occasion.
It's what he would have wanted.

As Bob Crow gets towards the pearly gates he trips on the steps near the top and bangs his head on the gates,
"***** me, " he says to Saint Peter, "that's a health and safety issue for a start."

[Churchill]

Bob Crow didn't shut down the entire City of London for good.

Neither did Thatcher.

Your point being?

[Peoplesoft bloke]

Like Thatcher he had a single minded dedication to his task in hand which was to look after his members interests. It is a shame he wasn't big enough to recognise that in a political opponent.

I hope someone chooses Going Underground for his funeral music.

Nah...

His family are asking for no questions from the press at this sad time, plus two additional days off at Christmas.

He died of a heart attack.
So it was "blocked tubes" that finally killed him. Oh the irony


And his burial has been delayed by a week. Severe Underground delays apparently..

As a porky, middle aged stressed out bloke you should probably be thinking 'there but for the grace of god go I' and signing up for a gym rather than gloating.

He's signed up for the London to Brighton. However, I think it takes more than just signing up to make a difference.

I was thinking that, and I don't have Crows champagne swilling snouts in the trough lifestyle

Unlike MF who has californian sparkling wine for breakfast most days.

Is that what the estate agent told you when you bought your hovel?

no the post office!

She is in SL4.

There is a bit of snobbery about it you get a few % more on your house when you cross the Bucks boundary and out of the Slough postcodes.

Windsor, Ascot, Gerrards Cross, Marlow & Maidenhead all have Slough postcodes we try not to talk about it.

I never liked the man but.... no, that's it. I never liked the man.

WHS, nothing to add.

I hope there's a gravediggers strike on the day.

On your gravestone there'll probably be a daily Mail masthead and the inscription "His house was only worth £200K. He lived in Slough".
Nuff said.
