Funny you moan all the same though when it affected you and you'd have been happy to see the woman who was on your train chucked off.
Don't be silly, I love conductors.. when they don't take their jobs too seriously. In my case I had spent £30 for a ticket, I'm damned if I'm then going to splash out another £50 for another ticket for almost the same journey because I missed my train by literally 30 seconds, and the conductor recognised that and didn't have a problem. Those who actually enforce this "YOU MUST HAVE A VALID TICKET FOR THIS EXACT TIME" rule are assholes however.

And yes because she was delaying me and causing a racket
