I must share loud conversation overheard on the bus today. Man gets on with his DS, maybe 12/13 yo.
Dad starts talking about some new 'research' he's been doing. He then said (as close to word for word as I can remember)
"I've been reading this book about the royal family. Apparently they are all reptiles that can change form. They feed on human flesh and blood which helps them keep human form. Far out right?"
His DS nods.
At this point I thought he was describing an interesting work of fiction. But no, he continued thus
"Thing is son, it's actually true. I've seen a newspaper report that has now been destroyed after a secrecy act has been passed. The queen is wanted by the Swiss government as they have evidence but it's all being hushed up. That's why they all live in remote castles and don't see the public much, so that no one sees their reptilian forms."
Now I know that people have some whacky conspiracy theories, but on a bus?? Shared with your young son and loud enough for all the other kids on the bus to hear (and be petrified!) Have any of you overheard weird and wonderful conversations while on public transport??
