..after I spend bloody ages bashing away with two fingers on a stupid, fiddly little touchscreen typing a reply to a thread at gets deleted just as I hit post.
Gah!
That is several minutes of my life I won't get back!

I should add that the reason I am investing so much time into MNing on said annoying touchscreen is that I have been waiting for e bloody bus for the last 25 minutes but a little-known side effect of a tube strike is apparently that all the buses spontaneously combust before I can get on them.

Losing interest in whether I ever get to Brixton.

Hope nobody is looking over your shoulder.
In my ridiculously untechnolgoical way I am wide eyed with wonder that you can MN at a bus stop.

VinegarTits · 03/11/2010 09:47

why did that thread go? i thought the OP 'up for this i can take it' Confused

I am on the bus now. Happy again. Although could be propelled into fury again at the pillock sitting behind me having the top of his voice conversation with someone called Tracy who is apparently waiting for him in clapham junction. I really want to turn round and yell down the phone 'he is lying! He won't be there in five as we are not just coming up to the police station, we are still a good ten minutes from the police station."

Hope he is reading over my shoulder.

VinegarTits · 03/11/2010 09:51

i know but i am selfish and your pain doesnt count, i was enjoying that thread! (off work sick and bored)

FunkyCherry · 03/11/2010 09:54

MN on the bus? And I thought I was an addict :)
Mind you, I wasn't even technical enough to have a mobile phone to occupy me when I was commuting, so I'm just jealous.

hobnobsaremyfavourite · 03/11/2010 09:56

Me too I am stuck in with 2 chickenpoxy children and need all the entertainment I can get.
[my pain is greater than yours emoticon]

TandB · 03/11/2010 09:56

Poor vinegartits. You have pain too. [graciously moves over to make room for VT on the thread]

Maybe you should start a thread about this thread being rubbish and not as good as the thread it is about, which was much better than the thread which inspired it.

I feel your pain .... have just spent 20 bloody minutes doing exactly the same as you only to find (presumably same ?) thread has vanished !

FreudianSlimmery · 03/11/2010 09:57

What thread did I miss then? I just dropped DD off at preschool and clearly it was a big mistake not taking my phone Envy

a friend was on a crowded bus once when a girl phoned work to make her excuse for being late as "the bus is stuck in terrible traffic" loudly.
It wasn't.
The whole bus laughed!
