Yay!!

Usually all I want to do is rant and rave about how rubbish the trains are... but today I do have something positive...

My heart sank when I saw that the central line platform at Liverpool Street was about 6 people deep.. it was packed, and I started having a guessing game with myself over how many trains I would have to wait for, until I could get on one... luckily they are every minute, but each one is still rammed beyond belief...

However, it seems someone was shining down on us... there was a bit of a wait, and then a completely empty train turned up!. Everyone was happy and smiling and chatting away at how lovely it was... one American commented that it doesn't take much to please us commuters... but who cares... it got everyone talking for a moment or two...

But then of course, the second we boarded the train, it was back to ignoring each other, and looking in just about every other direction to avoid eye contact with anyone...

Oh well, it's made my day :-)
