Me neither, lovely as they are.
You are also obliged to re-thatch them every 10-15 years which is great for my pal as his repeat business is almost 100% of his clients as he's so good at it, isn't too costly and is such a lovely chap.

I can't believe you would ever get on a bus.

yes, i quite like london by bus
but under very specific circumstances: it has to be after about 9 at night, so no traffic, and i have to get the very front seat on the top deck, and there have to be no cunts on any of the seats immediately near me. then it's just like a giant red taxi that goes almost door to door.

he said no :(
