Lucky you, I'm about to lose it with the trolly guy...seemingly he doesn't have to turn down the ping ping ping of his electronic till in the quiet coach.


I'm stuck...I have posh looking elderly women all around me...I can't crack my tins open through guilt.

One day you will be caught and sent to prison.

But on another note how would you like it if people came to your place of work and took stuff free?

Haha yeah, the prices for first class are utterly shocking.Which is why I have only ever been in there 3 times, each time because it was empty/almost empty.

You don't get sent to prison for not paying for a ticket At the very most you'd get a fine. But that's not how it works on those trains anyway... all that happens is you ask to buy a ticket on the train if they want to see your ticket and they give you one but it's just more expensive.

And I literally wouldn't give a ****, life is expensive so you've gotta get what you can for free
