Off On One Again

A blog of no interest to anyone apart from me. Highly egotistical. Somewhat ironic that once upon a time people kept diaries secret. Now we publish to the world, even if no-one is listening (or reading). This may include stuff on Greece, history, rugby, cricket, Health and Safety, Wales, genealogy and West Hendred. It will almost certainly include complete rants about things I find amusing, interesting or annoying. There is no guarantee that anyone will share my views!

About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: Didcot, Oxon, United Kingdom

37, forgetful, cynical, sarcastic, would like to have been a struggling artist but ended up with a PhD in chemistry. Got bored with being in the lab, fell into Health and Safety and now can't get out of science without taking a pay cut. Rather enjoying the diversion into Environmental compliance. Unfit and terminally depressed. Lovely wife Sam - just about all that keeps me together. Son Rafferty GFX Hall born 24 Oct 2005 is growing up quickly. Greyhound (Buddy), cats (PJ and Boots), tortoises (Tinkerbell and Compost). Learning Greek at Evening Classes. Play Cricket badly for Didcot CC, haven't played rugby for years and am a little annoyed about that. According to my medical, am clincially obese. Earn far too little. Completed H&S and Environmental Diplomas

Tappins

Tappins coaches have always been the lcoal coach service for Didcot and the surrounding area. They have gone through several series of rebranding, including ther lettering and colour scheme. They do however remain the local service, doing many school runs, concert runs, taking people to Belgium for their Christmas shopping, etc.

They have changed after years of "Tappins, Didcot", to "Tappins. Oxford"! They are 15 miles from Oxford, have nothing to do with Oxford except the county. Two questions:

Are they ashamed of coming from Didcot?

Whay are there so many places within a 50 mile radius that want to be associated with Oxford? It is after all a bit of a hole full of poo.
