2 Sets of Doors

As I sit on the packed underground train at London Bridge Station, I can't help but be amazed by the wall of glass that stands between the people on the platform at the emerging trains

Surely, a work of innovation. This now means that people won't fall onto the tracks or be pushed in front of trains. 2 sets of doors can only mean more safety can't it?

So why can't I stop imagining the scenario where I am late for the train, I run to get on it but the doors are just closing. Not only that, but the train is packed solid with suited Canary Wharf cocks and as I try to squeeze on they shove me out. As they do this, the glass protector doors shut behind me and the train doors shut in front of me. Now I am stuck between the wall of the glass and the wall of the train. As the train begins to pull away from the station, I am squashed beyond all help and am rolled around between the 2 walls until my head is crushed. As the train finally pulls away, I fall onto the tracks where I am not only electocuted, but rats begin to eat my face.

I suppose the best way to avoid this happening to me would be to just wait for the next tube instead of trying to just squash in like an idiot...

...but who's got 3 minutes to spare?

Recycling

Bromley is a place that's technically in Kent, but it's also sort of in London. I say this because I live in London and can get one short bus there using an Oyster card, so fuck you Kent it's ours

Bromley has a thing called a "shopping centre" where people go to give other people money, then those other people give them carrier bags with things inside and then everyone is happy at the end of the day. It's an amazing premise.

While I was in Bromley the other day, I discovered something amazing. Living in Lewisham, we have to put up with a council that is only concerned with the recycling of rubbish. I would like to personally commend Bromley Council then, for taking the time to think outside the box.

I spotted this amazing recycling unit on the main highstreet

 It's about time local councils started taking into consideration the need for this sort of recycling unit. Bromley council hasn't just implemented one of these bins though, they are leading the way with TWO

If you need to make a deposit, this bin can be found at the bus stop just outside Bromley's Sainsbury's.

We need progress Lewisham Council!
