I write things while staring into space, wondering why beans on toast isn't appreciated enough.

A Train Tale:

"STUPENDOUS!" the ticket man calls with the same joyous vibrancy of his red hair. He scans the ticket. "Thank you, kind sir."

"ICONIC!" He scans another. "Thank you, m'love."

"LEGENDARY!" Another. "Thank you, buddy."

He leaves smiling, glowing faces behind him.

A Train Tale:

The man checking tickets carries a custom craft hole punch. He leaves a train-shaped hole in each paper ticket and a child-like smirk on those carrying them.

A Train (Station) Tale:

A man dressed as a lobster.

That's it. That's the tale.

Today's Train Tale:

Two young men board and sit at a table seat. Before removing their bags from their laps, one eyes the other with passionate concern.

"Don't you dare," he says.

"Knowledge is power," the friend replies.

A wad of revision cards is revealed. They both sigh.

Wasn't ready for something that trumps Disney's 'Up' in #TheLastOfUsHBO

Got to love marketing that involves free stuff. The yoghurt being handed out at Leeds train station today was a lovely and unexpected boost to my early morning.

It's scientifically proven, too, that yoghurt tastes better when it's free.

Thanks, @ArlaDairyUK!

It’s official. Autumn is here. 🍂

Here’s to jumpers and cardigans, cosier evenings, pumpkin-spiced everything, and not an electric fan in sight.

A British conversation:

"No trains cancelled today?"
"All trains are running today."
"Wow, amazing!"
"All trains are running because we have a new prime minister, don't you know."
"Love to hear it! Ah. It's 2 minutes late, though. You can't have everything."
"No, no we can't."

@ManicMundie Clearly not 😅

Tonight I had ketchup pasta for the first time since university and, honestly, I can't believe I've been starving myself of this delicacy for 5+ years.

@ManicMundie That's my meal tomorrow!

Today marks #EarthOvershootDay – the date when humanity has used all the natural resources the Earth provides during the year.

But we can fix that. With the #PowerOfPossibility, simple solutions can #MoveTheDate.

Things I've overheard and seen on my train journey this evening:

"She's 23, and she doesn't have Snapchat?"

A hard-faced man taking a table seat for himself and his half empty bottle of red wine (and plastic cup)

"I've never thought. Buying kids' underwear is so much cheaper."

This is my morning. Down £2.40 and this Kinder Bueno REALLY doesn't want to be mine.
