Does being Anonymous influence the comments we make on topics,i.e. Are you more rude or forthright than if your identity was known to all & sundry?

One of the benefits of anonymity.

So if a new poster with the name fish cake starts to post we will know you took fish on the bus ?

So what happens to the bus using ladies who've just bought the Friday fish ??? Especially if it's smoked. They'd have to bury it under everything and tie knots in the bag haha

No food on the bus means that the bus should never call into the supermarket to pick up shoppers who've just bought kippers

or Gents NannyTee - it is always DH who buys himself a kipper, I don't eat them.

Well maybe the Gents would be allowed on public transport. Especially if they are large Gents. grin
