Todays Nightmare Journey Home By Train

It's a nightmare trying to get back to Eastbourne from London tonight. Due to a fire on the track at Selhurst hardly any trains are running. The crowds at Victoria were a massive.

When a delayed train to Eastbourne arrived the crush was very unpleasant. I got shoved by some crazy woman who was obviously a day tripper and seperated from her friends or family, and was trying to reach them. No reason to take it out on others by trying to force a way through, so i just quietly seethed and now nurse the bruise on my arm from her.

I'm on that Eastbourne train at present and it's very overcrowded, with people standing whereever there is a spare few inches to accomodate them. I've actually got a seat, but it's on a cattle truck so i have some womans nails digging into my elbow as she is sitting with her arms folded.

How i love travelling by train!
