Both trains before mine were cancelled this morning, meaning there was triple the amount of people waiting to get on the train I would normally get. Not to mention it was going to be at least 10 minutes late. With that amount of people I was just never getting on it, my stop is the last before town.

So decided to bute the bullet, drive in and pay the underground car parking fee. Went to get into a space and I'm not going to make excuses, scuffed the front bumper on one of the cementn pillars! Why on Earth do they make them so tight and cramp!? And why can't people park properly and within the space in the first place?!

Needless to say, I am not having a good morning...

It's so people with big cars and small penises feel less inadequate...

This is our "pride of Scotland" service, Scotrail! No wonder people don't want to use public transport - imagnie if there was somewhere you just had to be and this sort of crap happens.

Stations in Ealing, Southall, Hayes and West Drayton are FGW stations, although the Heathrow Connect does stop at my station.

Sometimes during morning peak hour, FGW sent a train from Reading with the final stop being Paddington with only 3 carriages - they need at least 5/6 carriages for every train between 7:30 to 8:30.

I shit you not I used to use that Heathrow Connect a lot, good service but I hated every moment of it. Public transport around here sucks. I stick to my legs most of the time.

I wonder if I actually ever saw you on there!

HC is a better service and has nicer trains compared to FGW. However, there are only two trains each hour, 6 past and 36 past - All the other 5/6 trains are FGW.

In west and south-west London, public transport is crap in zone 4 and onwards; anything on the district line is bad too. People who do not work on in the city, just use cars.
