    ACTUAL ANNOUNCEMENTS FROM THE TUBE
    (no kidding, they're real):

    "To the gentleman wearing the long grey coat
    trying to get on the second
    carriage, what part of 'stand clear of the
    doors' don't you
    understand?"

    "At Camden town station (on a crowded Saturday
    afternoon):
    'Please let the passengers off the train first.
    Please let the passengers off the train first.
    Please let the passengers off the train first.
    Let the passengers off the train FIRST! Oh go
    on then, stuff
    yourselves in like sardines, see if I care, I'm
    going home."


    Driver: "I apologise for the delay leaving the
    station ladies and gentlemen, this is due to a
    passenger masturbating on the train at Edgware Road.
    Someone has activated the alarm and he is being removed
    from the train."

    "Ladies and Gentlemen do you want the good news
    first or the bad news?" The good news is that last
    Friday was my birthday and I hit the town and had a
    great time. I felt sadly let down by the fact that
    none of you sent me a card! I drive you to work and
    home each day and not even a card. The bad news is that
    there is a point's failure somewhere between Stratford
    and East Ham, which means that we probably won't reach
    our destination. We may have to stop and return. I
    won't reverse back up the line simply get out walk up
    the platform and go back to where we started. In
    the mean time if you get bored you can simply talk to
    the man in front or beside you or opposite you. Let me
    start you off: "Hi, my name's Gary how do you do?"


    "Your delay this evening is caused by the line
    controller suffering from elbow and backside
    syndrome -not knowing his elbow from his backside. I'll
    let you know any further information as soon as I'm
    given any".

    "Please mind the closing doors..."
    The doors close...The doors reopen.
    "Passengers are reminded that the big red
    slidey things on the side of the train are called the
    doors. Let's try it again. Please stand clear of the
    doors."
    The doors close...
    "Thank you."

    "I am sorry about the delay, apparently some
    nutter has just wondered into the tunnel at Euston. We
    don't know when we'll be moving again, but these
    people tend to come out pretty quickly...usually in bits."
