There was a railway accident yesterday.......on the very bit of track I use to get home from work.......yesterday I stayed with my ex - something that I´d decided before the accident.    But tonight most of the trains home have been cancelled

Fortuantely there is at least one running which is much earlier than I usually get but I´m going to try and get that one - bet it´ll be absolutely packed!!!

Wow!  I guess staying friend with your ex has its advantages!

Surprisingly the one train that hasn´t been cancelled is not completely packed and is running on time I´m on it now updating from my phone and being annoyed by a little girl running around the carriage and climbing from seat to seat across the isle...do parents have no control or just no interest???

 That´s one thing I have a problem with parents letting their kids run wild...mostly in the grocery store.

 I often wonder the same thing.  I can´t stand when children are obnoxious in restaurants!  Why don´t parents take them for a walk instead of terrorising other patrons.  I know my son wasn´t ALWAYS and angel (just mostly )  but when he was naughty, I always took him out of the situation.

On the subject of rail journeys, I have the pleasure of travelling to London regularly on the officially most crowded trains in the UK.  And on yesterdays crowded train where numerous people coughing, yuk! and two people near me with the music so loud you could actually hear the music from their headphones (not the usual thump thump thump) ................

I have to confess that today I had my MP3 player on as loud as it would go........

But only to drown out the shouts of the obnoxious and uncontrolled little girl that was travelling in the same carriage as me.

 Haha I dont blame you!  I was just in an irritable mood............. and the previous day, there was this complete d*** who kept asking people if his was too loud!!!!!  I think it looks rather funny what you see business men, complete with their obligatory pink tie and pale pink shirt, brief case and IPod, and they start to sort of "dance" to their Mozart in their seats

 if only it was just the noise....... dreading next month doing some project work which will mean a 9-5 commute nose to armpit....

 Uhmmm the armpits............... such delights!!!!  Fortunately the lines I use are generally a bit quieter............. But if I have to use the Northern line urgggggggg!!
