<p>In a completly off topic issue, The Sydney Morning Herald has seen fit to publish my article in the Heckler. Thought I'd take the opertunity to boast here.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.smh.com.au/news/heckler/if-y ... tml">Click here</a> for the link to the article.</p>
<p>The topic - Slow walking pedestrians. Enjoy!</p>

:evil: I'm with you BigMickB. :twisted:

:evil: Create some fast lanes or banish the slow doddlers. And don't let them walk two (or more) abreast to block our paths. :evil:

Well done on a nicely put together piece!

Interesting read there Mick, oh and by the way you won't be seeing me on the train anymore as I have managed to get gainful employment closer to home.

And did you have to include me in that article?!??, I would "give up" my seat at Parramatta to ensure I could depart the train at Granville.... sad but true...

Never fear, Swampy. I'm sure we'll cross paths again somewhere. And just for the record, I never singled out any one person in particular. I prefer to discriminate equally! :twisted:

Great read! :lol:

May I suggest a cattle prod for your commuting amusement? :D

Now, where's my stick, those damned kids are on my lawn again!

And they are playing loud music.... at least in my day music had a tune

I saw that article and couldn't have agreed more. I hope you didn't find me in that category!

Good article, however there is one flaw in your arguement...

When have you ever seen a slow driver in the left hand lane?

:shock:

I used to be pretty tall and suffered the same problems with slow movers. I found that wearing ripple sole shoes gave the really slow movers at least a fifty/fifty chance!

Please don't visit Brisbane bigmickb. A walk down the Queen Street mall would make walking around Sydney seem a pleasure :shock:
