Heard 27 December: "Please keep your children safe on the platforms as we don't want to have any unnecessary accidents". Where can I find a list of accidents that LU consider 'necessary'? This was actually a rather pleasant announcement as it wasn't as formal as most, and obviously showed that someone was keeping his eye on what was going an and made an ad-hoc announcement when the circumstances (several small children running about on the Eastbound District) warranted.

I've often noticed that even pre-recorded announcements can be triggered by events - leaving a feeling which is a cross between reassurance and "Big Brother is watching you". As to the form of words used, my particular hate is of "we hope this hasn't caused too much inconvenience" which always leaves me wondering how much inconvenience they consider sufficient.
