Myself and La Poulet Madame both use that line often - you'll find me on the 7:25 service that stops at London Bridge most days.

We have a quite laconic driver over the tannoy some mornings, I can only imagine that's yourself?

Thankfully I no longer drive anywhere near London Bridge...

You poor bugger - having to go to Chatham
I climb indoors sometimes at Rochester and a lot of the guys are a nice but rough old crowd from Chatham and Strood. When I left my ex I had serious offers to have him done over for a very small sum.

The Medway towns - proper scary!

@cl
Almost every problem I have at work involves Strood, Chatham, Gillingham (especially) and sometimes Rainham. Thankfully I don't have to go that way too often.

Gillingham High Street is a scarey place!

Yep. Sounds familiar
One friend of mine is a policeman there. Lovely guy but hard as nails and to be honest I'd never, ever want to a)get on the wrong side of him or b) be in an enclosed space on my own with him - lovely but ever so slightly scary.
