:-D :-D just down on a platform of a station . I have a bus pass now so I am OK ;-) We have a bit in common Island I was a biker too :-D

I've still got my oyster card - been moved out for 12 years.
I bet whatevers on it wouldn't get me far at todays prices :-0

Dad and I went down to Highbury on the tube as Dad worked for as they were called then London Transport. He had a free pass so cheap journey for us :-D :-D

134 to Tot'num Court Road if I wasn't motor biking.

I didn't use the tube for ages after it stopped in a tunnel for an uncomfortably long time - no-one said a word, as they never did. I got out at the next stop in a panic :-(

Just watching the Repair shop and they are restoring 2 highbury seats . Oh joy I would love them :-D :-D.
I digress ;-) tube from Edgware to Islington for me

City to Highgate was the 271. Took me on a tour of Norf Lundun. Through Hoxton and Essex Road. I used to fall asleep every night, and woke up frantically looking out of the window to see where I was. :-D :-D

134 took me down to see Mum and Dad :-D

:-D :-D :-D Island. No bus for me but the tube got me there :-D.

134 for me MG :-D

My very best friend ever, who could always be relied on to silence a building with her inappropriate comments was bored with the silence one time and said, audibly, 'it's like sitting in the clap doctors waiting room' :-0 :-D :-D

Who lowered the tone here? :-0

I daren't post what my v b friend said, loudly, at the pictures when two girls were being noisy. The RR'r would crawl out of the woodwork.

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D. MG. We don't do posh do we ? :-0 :-0 :-0 :-0 :-0 :-D

I went up in the world Island :-D :-D ;-)

On the 271 bus :-D :-D :-D

I thought you hailed from the posh lower reaches of the Highgate canopy MG :-0

Most definitely MG :-D :-D :-D :-D. Anyone doused heavily in perfume was described as smelling like a pox doctor's clinic If anyone was on the large size like me he would say once round him/her twice round the gasworks :-D A real charmer my Dad ;-) Bless him <3

I have a weird sense of humour too. I quite often say things and it goes over people's heads. Luckily OH has the same as me.

I too was told I would laugh to see a pudding crawl. :-D But yet again LG and I come from the same area. :-)

Dad used to say a well dressed man was looking 'sprauncy'. Or if over dressed 'like a Pox Doctor's clerk' :-0

When we told him a porkie or two, he said 'Dont take me for a right pilgarlick'

Ring any bells LG? :-D :-D

My Dad had loads of daft sayings. :-D

Must be a dad thing......

Mine used to say "Never in the reign of pigs pudding" if he didn't believe something :-S :-D

No funny bones then ;-) :-D :-D :-D. My old Dad used to say I would laugh to see a pudding crawl (Old London Saying) :-D :-D :-D

Thank you kindly :-D :-D

I was at a group thing about a year ago and related what I thought was a very funny, ironic, true story. Blank faces every one of them. I had to check that my voice wasn't going through an invisible translate to a foreign language thingy. :-S

And you will be very welcome.

That's it ZZzzz. Too po faced to frighten the horses :-\

I'd be down your end of the table for sure :-D

When I met with my best friend in town we had a lot of laughs about silly stuff that the rest at our dinner table didn't find funny at all, I think too many people are afraid of upsetting someone so didn't laugh, well two of us did. :-D :-D
