Quote ="Suzy Banyon"They entertain me.
In this thread we have someone trying to justify not turning up by saying they couldn't get to the ground in time, where do they live, London? If they did live in London it's only 2:15 on the train, I could finish work in central London at 5:00pm and be in the ground at 8:00pm.'"
At a cost of...?
What time is the return train...?
Will it entail overnight accommodation?
What if the time you finish work is not negotiable?
Can I be assured of being back at work for 8.45am the next day?
And that's before we start prying into more personal reasons why people might not be able to attend.
