Funny travel rhymes


Are we at top speed yet, here in super-sophisticated, 21st century Britain?

After all, High Speed 2 is fast approaching... isn't it? And meanwhile, there's always another train... isn't there? Well, a schedule one anyway. Cancelled? Well, how about the bus then? No sign? Oh. Well, it'll have to be the car then, if it's working. Mine's never really recovered since ploughing through a flood, and then a snow drift, followed by a skid over a sheet of ice into a hedge, last winter. (Another symptom of global warming: premature car ageing.) So, what's left? The push bike? Sure! Why not? Because the new bike lane fizzles out at the corner, that's why. And even that little stretch is blocked with parked cars. Walk? Like in the old days? No, not like that - slower, of course. We're not as fit as we were these days, remember. High speed travel have slowed us down.
