    This service is an absolute disgrace. South Eastern will be getting a strong letter from me and @DaveMehmet 's bosses wives :-)

    We made it to Sidcup but it's at least 1.5 to my house so have stopped for a few beers to let the rush die down.

    How do you suggest people get in to London? Drive?

    I'm hoping this is leading to a punchline!

    The Bexleyheath line takes in some fantastic sights across Kent and SE London, the people are pleasant and the trains are driven in a courteous manner.

    The Sidcup line reminds me of a road trip through Alabama, the amount of banjo shops you see on the way is staggering.

    More signalling problems this morning. Something that doesn't appear to happen on the DLR.
    In fact the DLR (so far for me..) aside from overcrowding has been working without an issue; there hasn't been any of the following:

    Signal failure
    Trespassers on the line
    Burglars in a tree
    Lineside fires
    Landslides
    Broken platforms
    Trains striking the platform
    Bridges struck by vehicles
    Defective doors
    Passenger incidents
    Passenger being taken ill
    Displaced train crew
    Lack of rolling stock
    Frozen tracks
    Overheated tracks
    Leaves on the line
    Over running engineering works

    I'm sure I've missed a few.

    Are they just lucky....?

    Falconwood has a very high number of good looking female passengers.

    Are you sure they're female mate, I'd check just to be sure.

    You forgot that the heating doesn't get left on in summer as they don't have drivers

    Are you sure they're natural brunette. You'd best check to make sure.

    Got to the station this morning and my train was showing up as delayed. The tannoy announced the usual apology message and said it was due to a trackside fire. My train then turned up a couple of minutes early.

    05:35 from Bexley was cancelled, luckily I got there a few minutes early and was able to get on one going the other way to Dartford. Changed at Dartford and got one back along the Bexleyheath line to Lewisham (DLR to Canary Wharf never lets you down). Actually got into work a few minutes earlier than I usually would.

    The train along the Bexleyheath line wasn't as horrific as I was expecting. Apart from the missing teeth, dirty clothes and the mixed smell of Lynx Africa and body odour (and that's just the woman) it was actually quite tolerable.

    They were still shagging their sisters at that time of the morning mate.

    We got turfed off the train at Lewisham this morning for no apparent reason. Then had the joy of trying to change platforms at that shithouse of a station and then take a run up to barge onto the already massively crowded Cannon St train. Such fun!!

    Said it before and I'll say it again...CUNTS!!!!!

    Two weeks on holiday, landed at Gatwick at half ten this morning. Cold, wet, not a single fit Spanish bird in sight, and obviously the parasites at South Eastern and their lazy mates at Southern have conspired to turn a straightforward journey at the quietest time of day into a minor ordeal.

    Holiday glow abruptly ended, welcome back familiar feeling of fury, hatred and weird urge to punch a train, if one ever turns up.

    C#%ts.

    Did you go straight into the bog at Gatwick and check your tan in the mirror?

    The absolute nonce cases as Southeastern think that by sticking a country and western band outside Charing Cross station, singing about 'Victoria Station' will somehow ease the blow of them closing most stations for 4 working days in August, Dickheads.
