My own mother refused to let me use the word 'oblong' instead of 'rectangle'. Which is just odd, to be honest.

you are only allowed to bring 2 cans of beer into the ground, most people buy 4packs, therefore trains heading towards London about 9-10am tend to be rammed with people merrily drinking away from the can from station to tube.
