Paul S * My apologies for the spelling, To the other paul, there was supposed to be some irony in my Bor(r)is quote. I am a great fan of the whole its "my" (Bor(r)is' overground when it was Kens idea and a succces and its Kens Bendies when they are useless. Ho hum............ The report I recieved was the flames were high, the fire brigade attended and tha the bus station remains closed for removal of the remains. The LUL station opened 50 minutes after my original post. I am fully aware that the sensationalist world we live in could mean there is simply some scalding on a panel somewhere.? Richard |
