Post #133 - Trains, Planes and Automobiles

Well, the first one anyway, planes aren't a huge part of my life. Yesterday I went for a day trip to the coast and to enable myself to be able to catch the relevant train I had to travel across London. At weekends they often run 4 carriage, half size trains and as you can imagine, they can get crowded. Anyway, there I am, minding my own business, sat on a set of 6 seats, facing the way of travel and the train stops at a major travel hub. Quite a crowd of people get on and despite there being loads of other free seats, a couple wish to sit right next to me. Yep. I huffed and puffed a bit - the woman was frigging annoying - all middle class braying voice and flicking her long bleached hair about. After putting up with about five minutes of this, I plonked myself on the backwards facing window seat, thus having a free space between myself and another passenger who was located in the aisle seat.

The rest of the journey was fine; I managed to score well on my Tetris game. Mind you, later on, whilst on a mini train, a noisy group of people with profound learning disabilities got on the same carriage. I honestly felt that my ears would explode and truly believe that not all disabled people can understand others with different conditions.
