Oi, never mind the bollocks, where's me prizes? Mugs? T-shirts? I'm

Perhaps Garry will be sending you a pair of bullocks. Ideal for pulling
your cart.

BallBreaker Question: A man and woman boarded a train during peak hours
in England. It was clear that they were deeply in love. They began to
kiss, caress, and grope. They continued with wild abandonment, tore off
their clothes and made love right there on the train. Several
passengers complained to British Rail. What was their complaint?

I thought they were to pull your chain.
Chains are then attached to carps.

England, eh? If it had been California (which does have one passenger
train--I used to live not far from the tracks and I've seen it), I
would have said they smoked a cigarette afterward.

The train was too crowded for them to see properly?

Your last word is the answer to your alt.summer.doldrums question. The only
purpose of the competition is to entertain the ubiquitous panel and drive
others mad. Those who are already mad (or Latvian) have a head start.

That it's hard to think of a question that will last longer than 45 minutes

I feel exactly the way I felt after I received a promotion without a pay
increase. Thanks, but I didn't deserve that.

Wrongo. The *first* complaints were about the behavior, but these were
ignored. The case was discussed on alt.folklore.urban at the time, which
was somewhat before dejanews, and enshrined in their FAQ list as follows.
# T. Couple on UK train had oral sex, then sex, then smoked in non-smoking area,
# F. ...nobody complained until they started smoking;
# T. ...train crew ignored complaints until couple started smoking.
Where T/F indicates true/false. If I remember rightly, by the way, it
was a company charter or something like that, rather than a train open to
the general public, so the reference to "peak hours" would be irrelevant.
But thank you for playing.
