GRRRRRR!!!
I have today a very important exam,and JUST today, the stupid railways decide to go on a strike. :angry:
I tried to take the bus, but those are all full ofcourse, so now there's no way I can get to Brussels in time, which means I have to do the exam in august!!!! :angry: :angry: :(
Bummer Sweeky.
Where's a Nazi occupation when you need one?
Good luck in your rain check.
what's a rain check? :blink:
A rain check is a deferral; putting something off for a later time.
I believe the expression originated in the US, something to do with trains or buses.
or picnics!
Yeah, picnics. But weren't trains involved?
ie transport to the picnics?
I'm sure it had something to do with buying and refunding rail tickets.
what has rain to do with it then :huh: ?Quote:

Its something like on Bank Holidays, if you had prebooked or prebought a ticket to go to the seaside or wherever and it happened to rain that day, you could keep your ticket for a sunny day.
ah i see now thanks man!
me silly and stoopid, wha :huh: :huh: ?! :lol:
according to some riteous ones anyway eh eh eh !!!!!!
Public transport is sh*t where we are skweeky !!
there are rarely strikes but buses are never, and i reiterare, never, on time, they are either early or late !!
always !!
/me curses public transport. :swear:
what exam did you miss skweeky?
Perhaps Miss Squeeky could talk to her friends who did do the exam and get some insight??
Turn lemons in to lemonade if you get me? :blink:
