These threads, which lie empty as the night, remain unposted upon. Verily, you know what to do.*

AGL Don't panic. I got on a train at York with a girl. By the time we'd stopped at Doncaster she was in hysterics because she was supposed to go North, not South. The guard was fine and told her to catch the next train. It didn't help that she had a double bass strapped to her back which was bigger than she was.

See? Things could be worse!

No we don't, we're on a virgin train!

Standing room only AGAIN

AverageGayLad · 21/08/2016 12:43

I guess, Vanilla Grin they didn't announc our train and it wasn't displayed, we had to ask!

Hello everyone!

Just catching up on thread

Portia

Love your words for next thread :)

toadgirl · 21/08/2016 12:48

Check Mn to be regaled by tales of monkeys wanking at the zoo

See, AGL? That would have solved your problem yesterday. Go to the zoo Wink

AverageGayLad · 21/08/2016 12:49

Not sure that would have helped ;) I'm not a monkey

But we're all primates (most of whom have opposable thumbs) and could have a collective wank Wink

toadgirl · 21/08/2016 12:59

That's crazy, Portia I don't understand why someone would think that is safe?!

AverageGayLad · 21/08/2016 13:01

toad Shock

Daft fucktards Portia!

Do train doors open by themselves? Or does someone on the platform have to press it? There's an Asian family with enough luggage to fill Buckingham Palace and I'm almost falling out of the door (if it were to open)

toadgirl · 21/08/2016 13:04

The train doors are opened by the guard, I believe, when it's safe to do so.

VanillaSugar · 21/08/2016 13:07

Christ Portia what do they think this is. Point Break?

AGL That's the spirit! Keep asking and you'll be fine x..

I'm off to Aldi. Anyone want anything?

Yes, Vanilla, since you ask, I'd like some scones please - scons, that is, none of your scohnes nonsense. Oh, and some clotted cream to put on before the jam. Thank you!

Mummyshortlegz · 21/08/2016 13:14

Get me some chocolate? Not mint or dark. Ta.

toadgirl · 21/08/2016 13:21

You'll be okay AGL

We're all here for you!

How long have you got to go on your journey?

AverageGayLad · 21/08/2016 13:26

Lemonade please!

We have about two and a half hours left

MyDressIsInferiorBlue · 21/08/2016 13:35

Cue the lifeboat yet again, I don't think that crew have had any time to themselves this weekend. No pay for it though!

Its disgraceful really. They should at least be paid like firefighters. I think the crew deserve medals

toadgirl · 21/08/2016 13:40

AGL You'll be so relieved when it's over.

Did you enjoy your holiday on the whole, though?

AverageGayLad · 21/08/2016 14:02

On the whole it's been totally great [gron]

Crewe station is HUGE and we need to find our train sharpish :(

AverageGayLad · 21/08/2016 14:15

Finally on it! Eleven coaches!

Second to last train now!

VanillaSugar · 21/08/2016 14:43

Sorry. Got double cream, dark chocolate, bagels and wine. Buyout a fail. Close, though!!
