Aaargh, I am really hating this commuting by train lark! And, there is no way out of it as Liverpool is an aarse to get to, and dead expensive to park in!

On Saturday I was late to work cos the trains run at different times at the weekend, which is something I hadn't thought about. And then, on my way home, which was a two hour window to do the train/drive home (50ish mins) and then eat, shower, get ready and get to a 'do' in town for 8pm. Well....first the 18.15 train was cancelled due to the weather (whatever!), so had to wait half an hour.....and then some piss head, nobhead was on the train, shouting his Scouse mouth off, and f-in at peeps (and some poor sod on the phone, who he repeatedly told ws 'gonne kick yer 'ead in if yer not a'the fuckin' station when I get there) so the pseudo train police arrived, and spent 15 precious mins pissing about with him, asking him nicely to get off, instead of just shooting him between the eyes and being done with him!

Argh....so I got home with 25 mins to spare, which meant no tea, and a quick shower and out!

Then, today, I got stuck behind some slow ass tanker on the way to the station, so pulled in to the car park just as the train arrived. I then had to leg it over the bridge to get to the platform just as the doors were shutting....

And, to make it even worse, I got stuck behind slow movers on the escalators coming home, and the same fucking thing happened. I got to the platform jsut as the train doors shut!

AAARGHHHHH!

You mean you didn't learn from this morning's mishap?

You're not having a good week are you? You're beginning to sound as grumpy as the rest of us.

I'm afraid I have to agree with Claudio. I leave very early in the morning and no longer rush for trains in the evening - I prefer to take my time and ensure I get a seat.
