45609 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Received from a colleague currently on a 12 month assignment in the sub-continent. This was seen in his local branch of Coffee Day. Coffee Day is an Indian chain similar, I guess, to Costa or Starbucks. One imagines the scene at the Coffee Day New Product Development Team meeting when this idea was first proposed. The executives sit around the table, strewn with beakers of mysterious coloured liquids and little paper sample cups. They taste it with trepidation. The room falls silent as the Beverage Development Task Force, having worked around the clock to prepare for this presentation, awaits their first official feedback. “What the …. is this?” sputters the CEO. “Brilliant!” says the Marketing Director. That’s just what we’ll call it!” And so a product is born. Customers can choose between Orange WTF or Green WTF. Grab a 400-mL bottle today! One taste, and you’ll be saying “What the…?” 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold unravelled Posted January 11, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 11, 2013 I've seen variations of this message used on the Overground, DLR and Southern recently. The amusing/scary thing is that on each occasion it has referred to a terminal/bay platform, with a stationary train alongside RIMG2070 by unravelled, on Flickr Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinWalsh Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Over the last couple of weeks I've started taking my dog Fudge up to BMR with me and as part of getting him used to the sights, sounds and smells of the railway I take him on a ride or 2 each time. The pics below are from today, he was very calm riding in the coach but not too sure about the smoke from the steam loco that was hauling us. (This one is now my background wallpaper on my laptop) 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidR Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Here in Poland, Lidl took out a lot of space on roadside advertising hoardings for New Year's fireworks and in the biggest writing possible was the word 'BUM' This is Polish for 'boom'. Sadly, the posters disappeared quickly after the season's jollies and I was unable to photograph one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69843 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 At the beach this morning, there was a mother and son walking along. The son bent down, picked up a shell and asked his mother if he could take it home. The mother asked him what would happen if everyone took home a shell from the beach. 'Well, there would be about seven billion shells less at the beach.' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
