    is going to use his enforced time off work to make even more obscene suggestions to his PRMRP class 20 kit.

      Mainly involving the going together type of suggestion.

      If Andy and the Mods can delete the blue haze in the modelling room I will be VERY impressed.

    I know its irritating, buts whats wrong with train station, after all, you catch a bus at a bus station, and the tube at a tube station.

    How about "its nearly Christmas" from TV/radio etc in September!

    managed to get another thread deleted by being overenthusiastic. Oops.

    can't believe somebody broke into his cellar and stole a load of junk! Cheers guys! But next time you don't have to force the lock!

      I dunno, getting that crap out the cellar is quite lucky, I would have had to waste valuable modelling time going to the tip otherwise. The cellar isn't exactly secure which is why I don't keep anything decent in it!

      I wouldn't want to break into your house, the risk of a "KABLAMO" based incident is far too high...

      You never know, they might bring it back...

    How about "do you want fries with that", could also go some way towards the UKs Tellytubby problem. While we're on with it Tellytubby should be banned as well.

    smurfs will be shot.

    Heard some more yesterday "interfacing with customers" and the "staff/customer interface point", how about "talking to folks". As for the second one I am not quite sure what the person in question actually meant, the shop till, the shop floor or all the customer serving members of staff? Personally interfacing with customers sounds a bit racy to me, at best it sounds like giving them a good snog, at worst, well, use your imagination! I think all touchy feely marketing speak should be banned, possibly along with customer care courses Oh yes, and the phrase "internal customer" should also be banned, they are colleages, workmates or whatever! Now internal customer sounds VERY rude.

    person in holiday cottage bangs on front door tonight "my telly is on the blink, can me and my wife come and watch yours for an hour or two?". Thankfully Mrs Boris answered the door and dealt with them, she is far more diplomatic than me.

      Thats along the lines of what I said but with language that was a tad more colourful.

    However a mobile phone is like any other tool, extremely useful when used correctly and in the right place. I was quite surprised to find that the instructions on using mobile phones on the lineside were only included in PTS information relatively recently.

    free, Boris is free! Time for mischef!! - note mischief is the art of annoying Andy, mischef is the art of making a mess in the kitchen!

      No really, I don't. If you think I do, well, time to see a professional...

    I know a guy who did this on the Settle line, got the reg and a decent photo of the trespasser and the BTP prosecuted the offending person. It does work. When I first did my PTS many years ago we were told you needed at least 3 things on the lineside, a PTS, a hi-vis and a valid reason for being there. Unfortunately taking photos is not a valid reason for being there!
  17. Boris
    All this hopping a couple of feet over the fence to get a slightly better shot seems a little bit pointless to me. If you are that obsessed with getting the photo BUY A ZOOM LENS! It'll be cheaper than the fine/police caution you will receive if caught.

    How about the general mangling of the language? I saw a sign in York the other day that referred pedestrians to a nearby "Signalised" crossing. Perhaps the ongoing confusion between "too" and "to" should be cited as another example, this isn't just restricted to the internet, I have seen it in national papers and advertisements. Personally I don't like the phrases personal shopper (salesman) or consumer services operative (shop assistant), I do find the title of people who work in Subway quite amusing, Sandwich Artist. Always reminds me of another kind of artist!

    feels he should use the Jedi Mind Trick to convince Rmwebbers to bid on his ebay junk.
