Still on the 7:23 to Victoria.

Unlike Wilmslow, who just missed it?

Should have headbutted him

The local train was delayed so I had just 4 minutes to sprint through the station and exit the gate barrier to get to another platform bolted onto the side of the station.

Usually a friendly gate chap or chapess smiles, and helpfully opens the side gate.

This morning I was loaded with a suitcase, about to miss the train, and the grumpty numpty insisted I use the ticket barrier which rarely works with a season ticket, this delay would have missed the train.

It was partly open from the person he opened it for so I just charged on through – I asked him for confirmation about the platform for the train (it is sometimes moved), he bloody well knew but just said to look at the board.

I said in the most patronising manner, than you for your help.
