About strangers and trains
Sunday 13 January 2008 at 8:47 pm.I tend to ignore people whilst travelling by train. Okay, fair enough, not completely ignore. I always have a look around who else is in the carriage with me. But after i've had a peek around, i start reading again. In this particular instance, there was an oldish lady next to me and a rather good-looking bloke sitting opposite me (incl. wedding ring). Normally i don't talk to people either, but when we were told the train would terminate and he asked me if he could follow me we started to chat about 'trivial' things like the environment and global warming, that resulted in the following articles from '04 and '07. It explains why there's a lag between temperature rise and CO2 levels (this had bothered me for a while, but i hadn't come round to look it up).
Moral of the story: neither strangers nor the delays on national rail are always a bad thing to happen to you...
