A Debilitating Affliction or a Priceless Gift?

A Debilitating Affliction or a Priceless Gift?

A debilitating affliction is currently sweeping London and effecting a large proportion of those who choose to travel by public transport.

It seems to attack those who are not of an Anglo Saxon or Celtic background, and consists of an overwhelming need to shout loudly and hurriedly in to a Mobile telephone using a language that is unfamiliar to those who are native to these Islands.

It usually manifests itself on the upper levels of London Transport buses and can continue for at least 20 minutes without interruption. It also seems to effect the bodily functions of those afflicted as arms and heads are often seen to wave around in an uncontrolled manor, whilst the mobile babble continues in in full flow.

So,if travelling on a London Transport Omnibus or indeed the London Underground Tube, please do not become annoyed or upset by the cacophony of speech spilling from the pathological lips of the afflicted, but feel sorry for them, turn away, count to ten, and and count yourself lucky that you have not fallen foul of this cruel and debilitating disease.
