Pride in your city

[hermes]

The 'drive for ages' bit gets worse as the kids grow up ... permanent taxi service..
.

This is what stopped us moving to a rural area last year. We live in a small town where the kids can walk most places or get a bus to the city. My mate who lives 15 miles away drives 60 miles a week as a kids taxi service as there are no buses.

I live in Oxford but not in the centre, in fact, there are very few people living in the centre. Few people but thousands of students. Students that have no interest in Oxford other than boasting how they were 'at Oxford' and how much chaos they can cause whilst expecting others to clear up after them.

The city and county councils are about as useful as an ashtray on a motorbike and as productive as a sloth - during those rare occasions when they withdraw their heads from the backsides of their Svengalis - the overlords at the unversity.

Oxford city (for city read university acquiring land and property for its student accommodation) is expanding and engulfing local communities, soon it will just be a huge campus where Tarquin and Sebastian can extol their friends with rivetting tales of how it took five years to fail their degrees, after all, 'What to do with one's hands during Irish dancing' is an exhausting subject.

'What to do with one's hands during Irish dancing' is an exhausting subject.

That's easy - strangle Michael Flatley.

Does the fact that I wrestle a cow make any difference?
