It's official, people now think I have escaped from a mental institution.
I was pissing myself with laughter this morning in the train while reading "rules britannia".
I have just started the book but it's utter genius. The "how to make tea" is just wicked 😀
excellent, take note
[i]"that British sense of humor", I'll allow that it is different from the American, and often quite baffling to foreigners. Apart from the heavy-handed sarcasm that often confuses Americans, the Brits love their double entendres and will never pass up the chance to take the conversation down the avenue of sexual innuendo.[/i]
who's the author? seems to be a couple of books by the same name.
Is this the book that has the "Mind the Gap" story about the mythical winged creature that lives in the London tube network?
Book is from Rohan candappa utterly brilliant.
Going to read the fact number 3 about queueing
"Once you are on a train platform, beware! Approaching trains sometimes disturb the large Gappe bats that roost in the tunnels. The Gappes were smuggled into London in the early 19th Century by French saboteurs and have proved impossible to exterminate. The announcement 'Mind the Gappe!' is a signal that you should grab your hair and look towards the ceiling. Very few people have ever been killed by Gappes, though, and they are considered only a minor drawback to an otherwise excellent means of transportation".
