No Snogging.

I see from an entry on another Blog, that the authorities at Warrington Bank Quay Railway station in Cheshire have banned kissing in the vicinity of the taxi rank because apparently, such displays of affection are upsetting the cabbies.

So if you are travelling on the west coast mainline and your train gets delayed at Warrington no nipping off the train for a quick snog.

Try Wigan instead

I’m reminded of part of a song by Fred Wedlock (The Oldest Swinger In Town).
I can’t recall the title of the album, nor yet the title of the song, but one of the verses
sticks in my head:

Newly-weds, whilst in the carriage,
Do not consummate your marriage,
While the train is standing here at Crewe.
Please reserve this natural function,
‘til we get to Clapham Junction,
Where there’s really sod-all else to do!

Does anyone else remember Fred Wedlock ?

I was very surprised to read about cabbies who objected to couples kissing. Most cabbies I have met seem to have taken up the job because of their voyeuristic tendencies. If you start a “display affection” in the back seat of a cab, the sound of heavy breathing will soon alert you a pair of bloodshot eyes leering at you in the rear view mirror !!

I think that these cabbies must be Muslims. Why ? Because Muslims have these peculiar ideas about how women should be controlled, and ALL “authorities” in the UK nowadays, will do absolutely ANYTHING not to offend Muslims !!
