oh, don't get me started about the debarkle on Wednesday for a seat - on the way home, both 'priority seats' already had pregnant woman in them. One of said pregnant woman went to stand up for me as I'm obviously further along than her - I told her to to be silly, she then asked everyone else if they'd give me a seat and they all said no or ignored her! At this point, both she and other pregnant woman started arguing with the others sat down, until someone went to stand up, but by this point it was Southwark and I get off at London bridge (next stop) so I said not to worry, I'd done my journey now in a suitably annoyed voice. (on the way in, the tube was so crowded I was just able to squeeze in by the doors, not get anywhere near the seats to actually ask anyone/flash the bump whilst looking pitiful).
Basically, there are some real cunts in the world, and a large percentage can be found on public transport during rush hour.
I think the biggest problem will be if there's a lot of people going to line the route a lot will want to get there early so will be travelling in at normal rush hour times, but because I've got to drop DS before work, I won't be able to go in earlier to avoid crowds... Although will lots of people want to go pay their respects?
Hmm, will have a little think. It's amazing how much more vunerable I feel now, I really haven't cared before when there's been riots or protests happening near our office (at the last anti-capitalist one we had the windows on the ground floor of our building smashed, we're right by Green park so tend to get the ones who want to target the Ritz - which is boarded up at the first sign of trouble so we're a nearby easy target)
