  • How to take the World Cup seriously

    At £5.99 it must be the bargain of the week.

    But for only £2.99 I could buy this which is also guaranteed to make my neighbours envious.

    I also think it's important that my pets can show their full support too.

  • No preaching allowed

    Even our Oxford Street preacher gets ASBOed

    LONDON (Reuters) - Preacher Philip Howard used to yell "be a winner not a sinner" at passers-by through a megaphone in London's main shopping street.

    But not everyone appreciated his high-volume evangelising. Thanks to a court order, he faces up to five years in jail if he is caught with an amplification device in Oxford Street again.

    "British society is going crazy," said Howard, 52, who has preached in Oxford Circus for almost a decade.

    "It's the hierarchy that don't like you. But let's face it the hierarchy put Jesus to death."

    Yes, I agree he was a bit loud and annoying but then again Oxford Street is not exactly quiet and I quite like a bit of eccentricity that is what makes the world interesting.
    It also opens a can of worm...

    I could think of many other types of anti-social behaviours without even mentioning those that have loud but very intimate conversations on mobiles in public places >:(

    mind

    Thinking about the tube my least favourites for instance are those that:
    -choose carefully the most smelly food they can find to eat on the tube
    -insist of carrying a backpack the size of a small caravan on their backs in a crowded train during rush hour
    -insist on pulling their suitcase on wheels on a crowded train platform totally oblivious of the fact that other people have feet
    - suddenly stop at the end of the escalator (a better effect is achieved if they are also carrying a suitcase on wheels or a backpack)
    I could continue...and I could start with supermarkets next;)

    For some reasons they annoy me a lot more than the bloke in Oxford Street and his God trip.
