Thoughts from the London train this evening

Youngish woman speaking loudly into mobile using tres tres uparket voice 'hello darhling, how arrrree youuuu'. Within minutes all the grubby wedding details were coming out and the accent was getting more and more 'tarn'. By the time we reached Wakey it wasnt just 'Tarn' but deep deep Kendray window licker accent!

After about 40 mins of entertaining carriage F she complained her arse was numb... then I suffered a Tourette's moment... yep you guessed it. Loudly and clearly I commented 'Shame it wasnt your face cos then we'd all have been spared listening to you!'

The silence in the carriage, followed by the sound of suppressed then not so suppressed giggles from all round was worth risking a smack in the teeth. Needless to say she didnt, she just quitely said tara and put the fone away

Stunningly attractive then !!!

 

Admitted she 'doesnt take a good picture'

but her wedding photographer made her look passable.

More to do wi if her face was numb she couldnt have spoken

 

Well done for speaking up ...

.. maybe she will think twice about it next time.</p>

The weird thing is that it is perfectly possible to have a conversation on a mobile phone without raising you voice much above a murmur - some people seem to automatically raise their voice as if they were an englishman speaking to a foreigner !! </p>

 

Didnt mean to speak up

like I say had a Tourettes moment and what was in my head just popped outta my mouth!

Did cause quite a titter tho... and i was well mannered enough to wave at her when i got off the train

 

Well, we can always count on you

to speak your mind!

Glad she didn't react badly.

 

well i had some clown quoting for the catering contract fot devon schools the other day on a train

all the way from london to nottigham.
