Well, that’s me officially a grumpy old bastard. Pensioner.  Time to put my name forward for inclusion on next years list.

Yeah, that question "what do you want..." has been redundant round these parts ever since I started earning a wage - if I want something, I buy it. Consequently I'm not big on presents (Christmas, birthdays or any other occasion) except if its either little kids (no longer applicable) or an adult 'milestone'.

 

For my birthdays, its sufficient that people just wish me happy birthday, maybe buy me a pint.

 

P.S. 11 days till my birthday. No obligation.:D

Was it the "No obligation" that did it or did you really all forget?

Residents of Scotland get their free bus pass at 60. Not reason enough to move (unless you live in Edinburgh), the buses are mostly shite.

It's the same in that there London, which has great buses and trains and underground trains and everything.

I could easily dump my car if I still lived there. It's relatively cheap for the service compared with almost anywhere even when you pay for it - getting it free is almost funny.

In fact the public transport is so good there compared to elsewhere one could almost be persuaded there's some shenanigans going on :rolleyes:

I know I've moaned about council tax before, but honestly, how is it even remotely fair that your access to free public transport at a given age is defined by where you live?

 

Trouble is, it's still London at the end of the day - far too many people in too small an area.

It's a cliche to say that buses were run better by the council here but I'm old enough to remember that and they bloody were. The roads and most of the rails are there, they just need the will from those in charge...still waiting for that bit.
