Thieves and public transport
Is it just me who gets this knot of worry in my stomach every time I take the train, a flight or a long bus journey where I've taken luggage with me? I get so paranoid that someone is going to steal my stuff and I won't realise until I get to the end of my journey. It would be so easy for someone to just lift your bag and walk away with it from a train or a bus journey from one city to another or even steal your stuff from your overhead locker on a plane. I'm forever leaving my seat to check my stuff is still there if I'm on the train, and I panic so much when I'm on the megabus and we stop somewhere like Dundee or Perth because the luggage hold opens for people to take stuff out/put stuff back in. There would be nothing to stop someone from just taking my bag and I wouldn't know about it until the end of the journey... and they don't normally do a ticket system on the megabus, so there's no "here's my sticker, that's my bag" or anything, it's just a free for all...
