sorry sir but you can't park there...........

......but i'm a tree.
"thats no excuse sir"..

ok so it may be a tad far fetched but it did look like this bloke was about to ticket the tree and to be honest with these b*****ds nothing would suprise me.
off to watford for a training course today which did not exactly fill me with joy.

i had arranged to meet mintfree at london bridge and we would journey over together. sadly we got a bit mixed up with meeting points so i made my way down to the underground platform. i kept my eyes peeled but then thought in the morning rush hour it was a bit fruitless so i carried on reading my metro. next thing as i am standing on a completely rammed platform is a voice yelling "SCOTT". it can't be for me i thought so i carried on reading my paper. next thing i know a voice has shouted again "IS THERE A SCOTT WOOD ON THE PLATFORM?". my darling workmate had decided that in case i hadn't got on the underground yet, she would just have a shout and see if i replied. so there is me (all five foot five of me shouting back across the length of the platform and waving my paper like a loon trying to point out my location. we then proceeded to have a chat across the platform to sort out where we would meet up as nobody was moving anywhere it was that busy.
the whole thing brought a few laughs and smiles from the folks roundabout and to be fair it was a bit odd for that time and place but hey if you need to speak to someone or find them at a busy station then why not.
it definately brightened up a day and although the training was a waste of our time and effort we still had a laugh..................thats what its all about after all.
