So let me get this straight…
...As if there wasn’t enough to worry about, we can now be perpetually prepared to worry with advance worry warnings?
Although that said, maybe it allows for much more targetted worrying – none of this general headless chicken worry to worry about.
Man alive: The potential for conditioning is massive: People will end up with hypertension every time their mobile bleeps for new text.
(I’m sure this has been dreamt up by somebody with a vested interest in the sales of Norvasc…anybody with Pfizer links on Merton Council?)

Just completely misread “jacket”...
...my version, in light of recent Archetype posts on the Bankers’ thread may have been entirely plausible…and entierly more likely to result in a tea-all-over-screen moment.
It’s OK archetype, I’ve just copied and pasted the same response onto the bottom of the Londonist article – however, they’ve not responded with anything, let alone anything as amusing/interesting as tugging on my jacket (or whatever).

Don’t worry Archetype, it was my mis-reading (which possibly says a lot more about me than you).
I did, eventually, remember how to read, and I did work it out in the end.
This was a good thing, as it means I’m no longer skulking around London wearing a cricket-box on the off-chance that I bump into a lady with a big smile and a sun-halo.

Spoke too soon, looks like BX3’s just been hit by the phantom jacket tugger of Old London Town.
