No snoggin on Platform 6 please.
 
Just heard a short news bulletin that Warrington station is 'requesting' alighting passengers not to kiss their greeting loved ones on the platform as causes a blockage. Have set aside a space on the car park for long embraces.:D:D

Is there going to be a fine for this now ? LOL

Only made the number up Shill.. LOL. Maybe the new ego station may provide some natural co-habitation areas ?

Could insist that he doesn't upset other passengers with a seizure .. hope everything is going to be OK when he goes to the hospital .. x

Nik and I drove past Warrington Bank Quay station this morning and we noticed the sign that said "Kissing Zone". I had heard about it but hadn't seen it. It's right outside on the forecourt and if you've come from, say, London you'll have walked about 1/4 mile before you get there.
We wonder what will happen if you kiss on the platform; an on-the-spot fine perhaps? :rolleyes:

How very different from Brief Encounter. How could Celia and Trevor have conducted a romance standing beside the taxi rank, opposite the sandwich shop, with Lever Bros. soap factory as a backdrop (ah, the aroma of Persil wafting on the evening air)?


There are 2 stations in Warrington. The other one, Central, is mainly for the Manchester-Liverpool line. I don't know if that has a kissing zone but, somehow, I don't think it will need one. :D

I've heard the PC brigade have made a complaint already, the signs discriminates against Gays:D

The kissing (or not) zone seems to have made the National Press and some of them are treating it very seriously - Ye gods! :rolleyes:

I heard today that the signs were donated to Warrington by some American city or other so they probably go back to when Burtonwood air base was still open. The date they were put up is strategic. :D
