So there I was waiting at London Euston today (Charing cross branch southbound if you're wondering*), when I saw an advert. It looked like any other advert, had the root of a tree and some text at the bottom.
It was in-fact an advert for Yorkshire, but what amused me was the text on it. I can't remember exactly, but it said something like "Even our worms have global marketing campaigns", and then went on to say that team17 is based in yorkshire and created worms. Nothing wrong with trhat but I had to laugh when I saw it. I'm not sure if that's really an amazing reason to locate yourself or business in yorkshire.
Would've taken a picture but sadly a train arrived first.
*Could've been Kings x northbound actually but I think it was Euston

What does the tree have to do with it, tho?

How do you find your member number? Without manually counting everybody in the member list...

Click on your username and see what the URL is, or hover your mouse over your username and read it from your status bar.
Xinos, you are member number 4380.

Went through Euston again yesterday but the wrong way, so no pictures :( (except of course cyclaws' link)
