Carpathius Nov 2012 9:19pm, 6 Nov 2012 18 posts	Quote Pin Carpathius People on buses who, for some reason known only to themselves, decide that they're actually at home and can therefore carry on a conversation at the top of their voice about their daughter's boyfriend troubles and why Social Services are removing her child.
