I was going to say. Anytime I've been carted away by the BTP I'm more than amiable. Antisocial my arse.
Ive never really been carted away by them but I have woken up drunk on a train in a train depot. :D
This was Harrow and Wealdstone though, cant see you going up there.

My day is getting worse and worse..
At lunchtime some bell-end bashed into my car and then drove off. The left hand side of my car is all dented and scrathed. F*cking W*nker.
Then someone has just said that I looked like crystal tips.

STRANGE NOISE FROM THE TOILET - MAJOR CURIOSITY
Westbound train 529 reported strange noise coming from
toilet inbetween carriages 6 & 7 due to 2 people (male &
female) who were seen coming out of the carriage before
station arrival. The latter was seen putting trousers
back on and the former rushing out of said toilet with
grin on face. Despite attempts to ascertain exactly what
happened, it was deemed safer to do basic arithmetic in
the knowledge that 2+2=4. Said persons got off train.
Its ok rosie, i was posting to Sul's message.

I have another amusing train story. While going home on packed train last Friday I was witness to a fight between a black lady - standing, and a white lady - sitting. I didnt catch what kicked it off but when the lady standing tried to climb over 5 people to lamp the other one I started to pay attention. Apparently the white lady had verbally assaulted the black lady with racial abuse. Anyway the black lady had friends that dragged her back and she was giving it all the "Well if you want a fight blah blah get off the train now". Well the black lady got off with all her mates at her stop. Just as the train doors were about to close the white lady jumped up and got off. This stop being hers too. Unfortunatley the other lady hadnt walked away, still being calmed down by her buddys. The train pulled away as the cat fight begun with all the other passengers pressing their face against the windows watching as much as they could of it.
Not that funny actually.

And then there were to two 11/12 year old kids who sparked up a joint on the train as it was coming into my stop last night.
Then a car exploded a few yards from me as I was walking home from the train station.
I live in a great area
