Maybe he was listening to a song that reminded him of his recently departed wife/kid/dog and drinking the special brew to try and forget.<BR/><BR/>i find commuters mostly fine although in too much of a rush and with an inflated sense of self-importance about the rush they are in, thereby excusing their barging through you.<BR/><BR/>That said I find slow moving people really annoying too, especially tourists. <BR/><BR/>"Yes, it's tower bridge, ooooh. Now get out of my way, I want to get home"<BR/><BR/>Also, if you'e going to try and take a photo across an entire stretch of pavement, not leaving anyone a way around you, you should expect me to ignore you and walk straight through. It is perfectly possible to take a photo of the river and leave a half meter behind you for me to walk in.<BR/><BR/>Well that turned into a bit of a rant, damn tourists.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14477129836862243762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1507242165120640932.post-51260263459246377992008-04-19T22:30:00.000+01:002008-04-19T22:30:00.000+01:00oh by the way it's Merseyrail not merseytravel, I ...oh by the way it's Merseyrail not merseytravel, I forgot what it was but didn't think merseytravel sounded rightUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17081411660511251908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1507242165120640932.post-11168884424812515852008-04-19T22:27:00.000+01:002008-04-19T22:27:00.000+01:00yeah public transport can be a drag as people can ...yeah public transport can be a drag as people can be so inconsiderate.<BR/><BR/>It amuses me that the Merseytravel campaign to urge people not to put their feet on the seats involves a cartoon of a scally (chav) with his feet on the seat and the words "putting your feet on the seats is anti-social" the irony being scallies are the epitome of anti-social.<BR/><BR/>Never experienced anyone hiding in toilets to fair dodge, but I think the woman was right and the idiots calling her a grass need shooting.<BR/><BR/>The weeping man will probably not be able to hear within a few years, so take solace in that.<BR/><BR/>Public transport needs some form of ass kicking rules for disruptive passengers as it need to be seen as something good not a place where people who don't know how to conduct themselves in public congrigate.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17081411660511251908noreply@blogger.com
