Greedy buggers.

(31 Mar 2015, 1:28 pm)mb134 wrote Having said that, I don't actually have 4G coverage where I live, so it's redundant for the next month or two until they sort my area out.

Don't quite like the look of the trains on the Eurostar in the flesh, but I'm enjoying the ride so far.

(03 Apr 2015, 8:26 am)Dan wrote I had a very good night last night, that's for sure.

Having a go on my very first double decker train at the moment.

(03 Apr 2015, 8:35 am)northern156 wrote That on the RER? I love Paris' transport networks, you should try some of the Paris Metros!

Also they have some pretty decent MAN buses (haven't a clue what chassis or body), I was on one from Charles de Gaulles airport to the city centre before getting lost!!

(03 Apr 2015, 8:37 am)Dan wrote Well I can't answer that as I'm just following the crowd! Hate the Metros - they're so overcrowded and uncomfortable.

The MAN Lion City buses look really smart though. They have colour Route Number destinations for the front, side and rear. Must be quite expensive.

(03 Apr 2015, 10:14 am)northern156 wrote That said though, last time I was in Paris was in 2009 so things may have changed since then!

That's it, Lion's City. Really comfortable they were, we went from the airport to the City Centre on the bus (with a stupid 1 or 2 hour frequency!) and then back on the RER. Need to go back again sometime though.

(03 Apr 2015, 10:16 am)tyresmoke wrote Yeah the MAN Lion City is used heavily all around Europe, there is tons of them in Germany (Dusseldorf/Cologne etc) where I was in November, along with some very smart looking Setra single decks.

The lyric is actually

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie

Could I sing better, bearing in mind I have gruesomely murdered classics like Bohemian Rhapsody
