Country Bumpkin
« on: 16 March 2015, 17:09:09 »

Last week, I was sat bored senseless in traffic trying to get into Croydon at rush hour. So I rang Mrs TB, and amongst other things, said I couldn't live there as the traffic would do my nut.

The cheeky mare said I'd turned into a Country Bumpkin :o.

Me, the confirmed townie from Aylesbury, a Country Bumpkin?

After the call ended, and whilst rebuilding some PoS redirector server, I pondered on her words. And decided, after living 14yrs on Mount Brackley, part of a small, quiet market town on the Bucks, Oxon and Northants border, she was right  :-[

That Brackley village carrot cider has gone to his head I think.  :P ;D


Croydon is perfectly placed to be the arse hole of London, Imo. Take the slug. Opps that.

The Slug goes nowhere useful. Plus now they've mended the track, its back to being overcrowded and late.

So if you're a country bumpkin now, do you find yourself complaining about things like this to the news?

Apparently that's the kind of things country folk with nothing more interesting going on like to write about ;)

....it doesn't go as far as the London Underground?  You do know about the underground, right?

Is that the thing that's dark, noisy, crowded and stinks of piss? Or have I confused it with greater Lundun in general :-\

No traffic though. It's a simple choice. Train, or traffic. South London is completely oppsed for traffic so it's got to be the train. Unless there's a load to carry.
