Not just "research" - I was actually "there" in 1964 and can place the song, and Lulu, not just in a musical, but in a social context, which, of course, your "knowledge" will be unable to provide .....

Makes me puke gratiously just typing it
Not to mention the bastardisation of David Bowie's Man Who Sold the World.

I feel like watching paint dry listening to a Dido album. Far more exciting than suffering your desperate wit and wisdom

Re: Would You Give Up Your Seat To An ‘Old Bird’?

No. Nor would I ever have done. For someone with an obvious disability or an obviously pregnant woman then possibly, but simply on the basis of them being old? No.

Re: Would You Give Up Your Seat To An ‘Old Bird’?

She looks great doesn't she...I'm glad no-one stood up for her she was probably one of the fittest on the train for her age.

I would stand for anyone who looked to be in need...a pregnant woman or possibly someone disabled but not necessarily an older person depends if they were struggling.
