So we had a little mini London Gaf meet up on Saturday and went to a Zombie Fete.

eggybob, me, and Kazenone

 

[Salvadora]

Your eyes are staring into my soul.

 

[blahblah...blah]

eggybob is lazy, Kazenone is at just the right level, and your eyes are fucking TERRIFYING. Goddamn, I hate zombie contact lenses!

 

[Kentpaul]

Hopsin eyes and strongbow in the same picture.. Win

[Qasiel]

Ah Musha, both you and I know that you've been a much, much better zombie in the past.

Went to the docs today and might have to have some minor surgery. Sucks.

I had to have minor surgery a few months ago. Surgery was fine, in fact I enjoyed watching it, but the recovery was a pain in the arse.

I hope it's nothing too serious, Lance.

If it's minor I hope you're doing good brah.

I've learned something while having no money. It's still easy to socialise when you have good mates, life is good man.

 

[killer_clank]

you're all wrong, the Olympic thread is glorious. GLORIOUS

yes.

You should make a topic in the OT about this. It would go well with "'im feeling bitter and resentful. Cheer me up." threads.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Yeah go for it kenty boy

 

[Mr. Sam]

I'm waiting for a chest of drawers AND I have no Pringles. I think we can agree I have it worse.

They type of people should just book a holiday. A holiday = The daily grass will be greener on the other side thoughts.

Then when you get there it really is.

Haha this happened to me. I actually thought it might be different currency because so many people refused it.

 

[Mr. Sam]

Are stamps actually legal tender or is that just bollocks which David Brent made up?

A stamp is worth a stamp. They're promissory notes just like a bank note is, but whether you can use them to buy stuff is up to the vendor.

 

[Mr. Sam]

Hmm. Good to know.

 

[Lirlond]

I know you used to buy stuff by posting x stamps, it might just have fallen out of fashion with the advent of cheques and so on.

Bus drivers hate seeing english fivers, I swear the look they give you when you hand them any paper.

Understandable really. So many people give them notes that they get totally fucked for change.

Maybe if their prices weren't exorbitant.

 

[Mr. Sam]

Oystah cahds are the way of the future.

 

[StealthGoblin]

That's not the drivers fault though is it? When I was living in London, it was £2.20 for anywhere within a given zone. Not too bad compared to some fairs. Everywhere should just run on Oyster cards. Are they available throughout the UK?

 

[Salvadora]

We're up to £1.80 over here. I feel like I'm being robbed each time I get a bus these days.

 

[CHEEZMO™]

If I want to use a First bus it costs about 3 quid for a single. It's cheaper to just get a return (4.50).

Edit: not return, day saver!

No, only London. There was a plan to extend Oyster into Manchester and Bristol, but the city councils got upset that they would be following a London innovation and have decided to go their own way with contactless payments despite Oyster working for Europe's largest city and being ready to go.

 

[Musha_Soturi]

I don't get buses.

Except the night bus when going home in the early hours of the morning when it's preferable to paying an extortionate amount for a taxi.

 

[Chinner]

i once heard musha refer to a bus as a 'poverty wagon'.

 

[zomgbbqftw]

Also this. Fuck buses. Fuck them and all the awful people on them. Without fail every time I get the bus there will be someone mouthing off to another person, someone eating some very smelly food and about 10 prams taking up all of the standing room. Fuck buses.

 

[Salvadora]

I hate people who play music on buses.

 

[Hot Coldman]

The buses I get are unusually quiet. *shrug*

I hate people who play music on buses.

What, like out loud out of a phone? Yeah fuck those guys. Thankfully I haven't seen a tosser like that in a looooooooong while.

You must not live in London...

 

[Hot Coldman]

I don't. I'm kinda glad.

 

[Salvadora]

Yeah it happens all the time. Makes the bus ride unbearable.

 

[SKINNER!]

I haven't taken a bus since my days at uni. Car to drive me to/back from work and I either walk to Glasgow centre (during the day of course. At night I just take a taxi) or take the subway/train if I need to get there asap.

The last time I had a problem with scottish notes in England was last March. Went into a wetherspoons to get lunch and they stuck their nose up at my £5 RBS note. Later, I took that same note to a corner shop to buy some gum and the man took it with no problems at all.

Somewhat glad I don't take the bus anymore. It used to be £2.50 all area/day ticket. Now I heard it's like £4.50. wtf?! Might as well share a taxi with 3 other friends. Beat the BO/rude people and late schedules.

But I have to admit that the Oyster card system in london is really good and its a shame that it's not implemented across the country.

 

[StealthGoblin]

No, only London. There was a plan to extend Oyster into Manchester and Bristol, but the city councils got upset that they would be following a London innovation and have decided to go their own way with contactless payments despite Oyster working for Europe's largest city and being ready to go.

Ridiculous. Surely its better if more of the UK gets on with that scheme? Reduced fares for all. It makes transitioning from trains to buses so much easier. No worrying at all. Anti-London sentiment goes too far sometimes.
