Win a copy of Office 2007 Ultimate
April 27th, 2007
I’m giving away a copy of the best version of the latest office suite from Microsoft, Office 2007 Ultimate. See a picture of the box here if you must, and the competition is simple. We here at Live and Beyond are simple folk, who like to work hard but also love to have a laugh. The competition is this, I’d like you to give us links to images, or plain stories about “weird things you’ve seen whilst commuting” and to start you all off, I’ve got an example.
On the way to work one August morning (and I’ve only just found this image on my phone), a pigeon was sitting in a seat on the London Underground minding its own business. Once the train arrived at Picadilly Circus Tube station where I was alighting, the pigeon jumped off the seat, walked over to the door and calmly walked off the train, jumped then flew down the Tube to wherever it was going. I have an image to support this, check it out.
For a chance to win nearly £500 (around $980) worth of software, leave a comment below and an image if you have one, and tell us your funny story about things you’ve seen whilst commuting. The best story gets the package. Go!
COMPETITION OVER: Although all the entries were great, we’ve dispatched the Office 2007 disk to Larry Grasham who although didn’t have a photo, made me laugh the most. Keep tuned for more giveaways

similar story, on the way to work in surrey, down this country lane at around 60mph, this pidgeon flew right in front of me, smacked into the windscreen (cracked it), then the force of it smeared it with feathres and blood all down my car.

There always comes a time when your car becomes no longer reliable and will break down on you. Its the worst feeling in the world to be stranded somewhere…. Some people avoid this by taking public transportation. Well.. it seems like that feeling was shared by those people to:

This happened about an year ago in the month of May during peak summers.I was going to my office and on the way near the water tap I saw what no one can ever beleive.I saw a crow drinking water through the tap.

Two months ago I was going for work to Ludhiana and in the way my car just broke down.At that time I was in the middle of the village so no mechanic and no bus or train was available.The first public transport that came was really unbelievable.Simply take a look at it and U will be really shocked to see a 1960 model auto.
