      "why ride a vespa when you can push a lambretta?"

      As I look ahead, I am filled with foreboding; like the Roman, I seem to see "the River Tiber foaming with much blood."

          Had an early finish coming back from London once - I was ten minutes early for the empty train sat patiently in the station. The entire and I mean entire carriage of seats was empty, I was the only one in there and i was sat on the inside seat of a table, trying to be polite. Of the entire carriage, a bloke comes and sits down next to me. For god only knows what reason.

          Being the polite and courteous person I am, I assume he must be bored and forgotten his headphones, so offer up some conversation. I get a couple of half grunted answers and then he proceeds to put his headphones on!?

          I ended up moving to the table 2 rows down and enjoyed a very pleasant and otherwise uninterrupted journey. But serious wtf was wrong with that guy!?

              I was travelling back from London once in a seat I had reserved, I popped to the toilet and when I returned I saw that some young upstart was sitting in my seat when the entire carriage was empty. I sat next to him in the hope he might get the hint and move yet he had the audacity to ask me how it was going! I put my headphones in and he soon got the message and moved 2 rows down. Some people...

                Amiga500? That's an idea, I should change my user name to ZX81. It would appropriate in so many ways.

                    Oh no! Maybe it was actually me that was in the wrong! I don't think so though, certainly didn't spot a ticket sticking out from the seat or one of those fancy cape things they put on them. Hmmmm. Food for thought.
