On Friday
the station was so packed that the gates were closed and people were only being
allowed down onto the platform in dribs and drabs. There was such a huge queue
at the gates that rather than stand about in the crowd I had a coffee and
chrissy mince pie in my usual Starbucks. This morning when I couldn't find my
Buckys card I though Oh no I must have lost it. Bother. Bit fate was smiling on
me as there down the side of the seat that I sat in on Friday was... you
guessed it. My card.
These are some of the headlines from
the paper this evening
Tube
Drivers Vote to Strike on Boxing Day in Overtime Row.
Absolutely no surprises there at all. These
drivers earn good money, demanded and got huge bonuses during the Olympics and
for what…doing their normal work. Now they want more money again.
Council
Tax Blow to Thousands Who Own Two Homes.
Basically at the moment if you own a
second home in the capital you get a discount of up to 50%on the amount of
council tax or rates that they pay. The article then goes on to say that more
than 70,000 homes in London are empty.
Sort
Out The Traffic and leave Our Burgers alone top chefs Tell Council
The council want to ban the sale of
burgers cooked ‘rare’
And last but not least, in the silly
stakes…
He
Was a Good Lad, Says mother of Driver, 15, Who Died Fleeing Police.
The underage boy died when the car
he was driving hit a tree during a police chase at 12.30 am. Traveling in
excess of 70mph in a built up area. So what was he doing out at that time of the
morning and driving a car.
