Now call me Mr. Angry and I don’t often use this space to
gripe but chewing gum is starting to take over my life. Within the last two
weeks I have had it ‘thoughtfully’ left on the seat I used on a train into
Now, am I just unlucky or are the latex masticators
targeting me for some earlier crime against Wrigleys?
For me the best way to control irresponsible chewers is to
tax gum; the Chancellor needs the money and the cleaning must cost a fortune,
or do as they have done in Singapore, legislate against its import or sale
(since 1992). If members have strong views (either way) please let us know.
PS. Does anyone know a way to get it off my suit!

Hi Gareth,
I've heard about people putting clothing in the freezer to try and peel off chewing gum, but I've not tried it myself. Putting a tax on chewing gum certainly seems a fair solution given the cost to remove it from pavements.
