In the days when buses in England had conductors, the conductors had large, very heavy, leather satchels for coins. I remember one getting snagged on a young woman's ear-ring and the bag being at a 45 degree angle before he noticed.
Ow.

In London they'd last about two minutes before being stolen or, more likely, vandalised.

Close your window!
The BPI is trying to bill a chain of car repairers as their mechanics play their radios loud enough for their customers to hear. Certainly a privilege worth paying for.

Naps vs. caffeine vs. more night sleep
June 12, 2008 5:02am
Firstly, I don't sleep well, I usually get to sleep okay but then wake up very easily or too early and spend the rest of the day feeling tired.
If I have a nap (say 30 minutes) I feel refreshed again but then have trouble getting to sleep at my normal time - so instead I struggle through the day feeling tired. Which is a bunch of arse, really.

Speaking of tattoos...
I believe SAS (and probably many other airlines) won't allow their public-facing staff to have tattoos that are visible in short-sleeved shirts.
It's the 21st Century and the chances of me having a snake grafted onto my hand to replace a finger are looking increasingly remote.

I find pretending to talk into your mobile phone whilst actually taking photos with it works fine - just remember to disable the shutter sound ;)
