Trains + Arsenal fan = Cous cous vomit

Ah. Trains. Not another rant — a mere observation — if you know there are going to be 2000 people trying to get home from Liverpool to London why preytell wouldn’t you schedule at least one more train? I mean really just one. That too much to ask for? There are about 200 people standing on this train. (I’m not — I’m sat in a reserved seat, not, I should add, one reserved for me. Booyah)

I wouldn’t mind but they’re stinking Arsenal fans complaining that the cous cous they’ve bought from the on-board shop is too dry. Arsenal fans are without question the most middle class football fans in the UK, maybe the world.

I had this conversation earlier: Fat man: That seat is reserved mate.
Me: By you?
Fat man: No but it’s reserved.
Me: [sitting down] But not by you?
Fat man: No but look mate that seat is reserved
Me: Yeah… I’m gonna sit here. Thanks.
