so, if uve been travelling as much and as often as i have on london underground, u kinda figured out what time/tube station/day/tube line to avoid.
jubilee line is hell. nuff said.
and today was no different.
the trains has been a cock up the whole bloody week.
than god laura (our station master-ess?) gave us discount on our tickets :)
which is like.. a sale dont u think? i love a good sale.
anyway.. a journey which should be like..15 minutes turned into an hour fiasco.
iam tired. sort out will u pleaseeeeeeee network rail?!!!!
anyway.. one thing i love about our southern train line tho, you will always travel with the same people on the same 7.42 train to london bridge.
its true. u hear stories about friendship being struck on the train. it does happen. u will See the same faces day in day out goin off to work in the morning. and its the saaaammmmeee people on the train on the 18.06 to uckfield.
so, when cockups happens and train has been delayed/ cancelled, u usually see us the the coffee shop cursing and dreading and also, coming up with plan to sue the network.
u learn their name, and u learn their habit. example, everytime we get off the train, jim whistles. he says 'its jolly good we survived another day'
every single time!!
and of course, we laugh. every single time!~heck, u even share a cab to go home.
its homely, and i like :)
and if ure missing, people do notice u!! its like.. if u havent been travelling for a week, then next time u pop in the train, a chorus of 'hello there, nice to see u again. uve come out from shelter then'
its always nice to know that people do think of u.
i suppose, iam another familiar face to them on the 7.42 train to london bridge.
wait, i mean, the delayed 7.42 train to london bridge.now, thats
more like
it.
ps: theres nothin like listening to fall out boy on the train. it makes u want to stand up and shout out, 'thanks for the memories, network rail!!!'
