waiting for a bus on Slade Road being equivalent to "pissing in the wind"*

n/t

I drive down Slade Road dailys, and always thought it was a bit of a shit hole. Now it's also a piss-hole too.

Erm that wally has a stick and mangled legs, you sure its not just a badly dressed stick enabled person ?

Micturition!!!!!! You're taking the piss... right

Paris, no micturition vid....... YET!!!

Hilariously, I work a short distance from the Slade Road Pisser(tm) location. Can't say I'm suprised to see something like that occuring.

I used to live just off Slade Road - that's one of the better things that used to happen at the bus stops.

Was it a cold day?

.... that I knew when google maps were going to be in my area, then I could paint something on the front of the house. What exactly I'm not sure...

Answers on a postcard to El Reg

No It isn't. He was originally Wally, (1987) and is in many countries. Only in North America is he called Waldo, and last time I looked the UK wasn't in North America.

Just saw a police car behind the Google voyeur-mobile in Manchester's Peter St. Which makes me wonder? How many times were the Peeping Toms stopped by the Police to be (a) told they can't take photos round here and (b) asked to delete the offending photos?

Mine's the one with the forcibly erased SD card.

Since when has UK not been part of North America, or US to be exact?

Methinks you delude yourself

Huh. Learn something new every day.

Thanks for straightening me out.

The scarf should have tipped me off that he was a Brit.

Google have pre-announced their drive through Switzerland, but not the starting date.

Presumably, the announcement improves the chances of being seen to be doing no evil.

Too much Cup-o-Soup, was it?

and that's no wee thing to do!

Unless I'm mistaken the guy watering the lawn is probably not an English gentleman. In other words he's a foreigner (I'm guessing). If so google are going to be in some sherious sh1t real shoon now.

Because we aren't allowed to take the p out of foreigners, are we?

Paris because one can hope that you might catch her having a tinkle at the bus stop.

He was clearly bostin'

Slade Road - students from Aston uni rent houses out up there. I lost count of the number of times I saw "ladies" being arrested up there, houses being raided and general riotous activity. Still, there was only the one murder in my time there.... Pissing on the bus stop is probably one of the more respectable things people have done there - plus at least he did it outside, most piss heads up there just piss on the upstairs seats of the 65....

I knew that there was a Wally cardboard cutout in Angel, Islington and found it on street view on Thursday

Therefore, do I win? :p
