Does anyone on here know who's in charge of the illuminated signs at Grange Hill Station? If so, could you please ask them if the one on the left hand side of the station entrance, unlike its sibling to the right, is supposed to be flashing on and off like that? It's been like it for months now and is beginning to irritate! ;D

Surely someone has raised a repair job by now? Is it a non standard light fitting?

It's the illuminated UNDERGROUND roundel.

I remember at my station on the JLE it took 3 months for the roundel to re-lamped.

That station should come with a warning - 'Punter Discretion Advised, May Contain Flashing Lights'. No doubt there's a job in hand. Make out of that what you will, but wash your hands afterwards.......
What to do with the duff bulb after it's been replaced? A quandary..................Hmm, I know! Let's give it to *professor* Brian Cox to use as a prop in his Royal Institution shows for celebs. He could call it *My Worndroose Magic Bolb* After setting fire to James May's hands by ignitingk fart bobbles contained in soap suds he could then place that old bulb vertically on a piano stool and then get Olly Murs to sit on it. He could then fire it up with some applied voltage to the Murs nether regions and then get Olly to do his chicken-dancing-on-a-hotplate terpsicore as he flashes himself all over the stage. The *prof's* celeb mates would love it! Especially Jonathan Ross who'd demand a go of it too. Danger! - Jonathan's nose has been up so many celeb backsides of late that the poor man is in a highly explosive state from all the methane he's inhaled. Stick that flickering Grange Hill bulb up him, switch on, and......... kAbOoM!

I thought it'd be something easily explainable like that. Cheers auxsetreq.  |

Hmm!!!!! I don't know what you're on but can I have some? Damn! Why didn't you ask me earlier. I could have got you some, and I do need to get some more for myself............... I've recently been in receipt of some contraband radioactive Ribena from *Professor* Brian Cox's hush hush laboratory floatation tanks situated through a secret door at the end of *Marble Arch sidings. It's great stuff when mixed with vodka, and enables one to see the world in a more oblique way. Unfortunately, I've drunk the lot.......... .......... *Here the *Prof* searches for particles from deep space which become bogged down in the Ribena. In between the collations of his space data he deals with his other projects. One of them being his master plan to take over the world with his army of Olly Murs dancing chicken hybrids grown in the Ribena tanks. Now being released into the wild many have been seen chicken dancing along Oxford street and causing all kinds of mayhem. At one point the police had to kettle them......... .......... Ceiling Cat and I believe these hybrids have been fed the wrong kind of millet and social programming. They all think they're Sheena Easten. Can you imagine Olly Murs with huge chicken legs singing in a contrived American accent with a Glaswegian twang? Well it's happening. And it's happening right now........ ...........I've been double double ending up those *u#king sidings all day which has sent me kind of doolally, but had I known I could have filled a discarded Lucozade bottle with some of that radioactive Ribena for you. It would of been risky. Because coming from behind that secret hidden door I was hearing all kinds of ghastly, beastly noises. One being Olly's hit - *Heart Skips A Beat* I know what he means. Mine was positively coming outa me mouth.......... |
