Wanker getting incredible signal on train

AN obnoxiously loud businessman is managing to get a remarkably strong signal connection on a train journey, fellow passengers have confirmed. 

Rail traveller Julian Cook has defied the limits of mobile technology by securing a cast-iron signal connection which he is using to hold a high-volume conversation about unleashing transformative change in nurdle manufacturing.

Fellow passenger Donna Sheridan said: “I can barely send a text when we’re stopped at a station, but this twat has his own personal Starlink.

“The connection doesn’t drop for a second, not on lengthy stretches through countryside without a mobile mast in sight and not even in tunnels. I know that because I can hear every booming syllable coming out of his dickhead mouth.

“We’re not in the quiet carriage. I guess calls are allowed. But we’re on the 43rd minute of him shouting trivial work bollocks to a man who’s surely as bored as I am and it’s a two-hour journey.

“No noise-cancelling earbuds can shut this motherf**ker out. He penetrates like a Mormon husband. I’ve discussed it with the woman opposite, and we’ve agreed we’re both going to get off at Paddington very pointedly.”

Cook said: “Hang on, people are talking over me. Let me put you on speaker.”

Eight ways to boost the cost of stag and hen dos

IS YOUR stag or hen do almost affordable? Has the sheer expense not caused you to lose a single friend? You’re doing it wrong. Here’s how to boost the cost: 

Set a budget early, and exceed it

It’s crucial to get friends signed up and deposits paid early so they’ve all got skin in the game. So set a reasonable budget of under £400 that will even rope in marginal pals, then escalate terrifyingly.

Keep it to one weekend

A whole week? The prudent will see something’s up and cancel accordingly. Make sure your event is limited to a weekend, only revealing once the flights are booked your definition of a weekend stretches from Thursday night to Monday lunchtime. Wave goodbye to your annual leave!

Go Scandi

Promising a European country with cheap air travel will settle nerves, until you come back with those terrifying three letters: OSL (Oslo), ARN (Stockholm) or KEF (Reykvavik). Gotcha, suckers, we’re going to the home of the £15 beer and £65 burger! Your credit card is gonna be maxed!

Hotels only

Apartments are dangerous: your hens can cater for themselves, buy supermarket booze, and feign illness to avoid a nightclub that costs a mere £50 for entry after a two-hour queue. Sharing a hotel room barely bigger than its beds leaves them no option but to party like a prosecco’s €19.99!

Keep travel simple

Get taxis everywhere. No matter the distance or time of day, tell your stags ‘It’ll be easier if we get a cab’ and flag one down while they’re still open-mouthed with shock about the one from the airport.

Fancy dress mandatory

On the second night, open a case and reveal themed outfits for everyone! Yes, for a mere £160 apiece you’ll all be dressed as French aristocrats for a pub crawl in hand-fitted dresses you can never, ever wear again. ‘Can we split the excess baggage charge?’ you ask sweetly.

Throw in high-cost activities

Every day should be a surprise; whether paintballing, Europe’s longest zip line, a brewery tour or closing a lap-dancing club for your exclusive use. A grand here, two grand there, it all adds up and if they object they don’t love you or respect your wedding.

Never, ever buy a drink

Whenever you need a lager or a line simply make it known to the lads and they will provide, surely? It’s your do, you shouldn’t have to buy your own booze even though you’ve been drinking 18 hours a day for three days and now we’re at the airport to go home. But you’re thirsty.
