Fuming about a place name not being on a banner.

What a time to be alive.

And hot on the heels of the BBC Weather map scandal!

I remember a Great Railway Journeys episode that kicked off with Portillo stating ‘But first, a place I’ve always wanted to visit, the historic market town of High Wycombe’.

It’s 30 miles from London mate. Not Lilongwe.

That is a typical reply by someone who has not read and understood what has been written. It happens all too often,

I’m sorry you feel that way about the sandwich we provided as part of your lunch today. Rest assured your feedback has been passed to our senior management team.

Bicester Village is just a big shopping centre isn’t it?

Correct, and IMO the most overrated place in the country.

[williwycombe]

Whilst Bicester Village is a painful inclusion and points to the worst excesses of consumerism…

It’s more painful to be usurped by a place as dull as Aylesbury.

Also, “Alan Cecil’s Railway Fury” is a bit of a self-indulgent band name. Preferred the original Railway Fury myself.

Bicester Village is the only station in the UK where announcements are done in English and Mandarin.

I was thinking more of a series of 10-minute fillers on BBC2 for when the snooker finishes early.

Funny thread!

As someone who was born and raised in Wycombe, I’m enormously proud of my town and football club.

Where I live now, now and then on dog walks or the pub I get the “that’s not an East London accent, where are you from?’

“Marlow”

The thread title can be sung to the tune of Not the Nine O’clock News ‘Oswald Mosley’ if, like me, you have gone completely insane.

Every time I say ‘between London and Oxford’ a tiny part of me dies.

“We didn’t vote Leave to have this foisted upon us”.

Signs in Arabic as well.

Episode One: Alan goes to Bicester Village and pisses through the letterbox of a Moncler discount shop.

For a long time I used to wonder what five things Ben was folding until I discovered his name was Ben Folds. My how we laughed.
