    clockwork bl**dy phones

    From next summer we are going to be able to make phone calls from the subway. Who the hell wants that?
    SPT who run the Glasgow Underground are bringing the system into the 21st century. Not by extending the network or doing improvements to stations or rolling stock.
    No, they seem to think that the answer to everything is to annoy loads of passengers by allowing those who are addicted to their phones or think that they are so important that the world always needs to know where they are, even more opportunities to show the rest of us (who don't really care) just how irritating they can be.
    Most travellers on the subway are only down there for ten - fifteen minutes. Can they really not do without their phones for that time?
    Or, because the subway is known in Glasgow as the clockwork orange, are SPT just hoping to open up an advertising opportunity.
    Whatever, they are going to ensure that one more form of public transport is that bit less pleasant.
