    That's thoughtful.

    I know that some Muslims living in London started taking see-through bags on the tube after the London bombings so that they didn't freak people out. Another used to always carry a bottle of wine. He said that it didn't make any sense but it seemed to make people less edgy.

    Sorry to hear about your misfortune but it has cheered me up a little. I have been missing the UK a little bit recently but I am reminded of a story about my parents when they were here in New Zealand five years ago or so.

    They took a scenic railway journey across the South Island and a tree fell onto the train en route.

    The driver got out, walked up the line to where there were some forestry workers, borrowed a chainsaw, returned and cut the tree up. Gave the chainsaw back and they were on their way again. Such a difference in attitude.

    I'm pretty certain he hasn't. Technical malfunction on Pogle's phone whilst in the pub, I think.

    SA - are you home yet?

    Funny that - I'm stuck on this train carrying a bunch of tulips for my wife and a very trendy see-through bag that cost me hundreds of squid. And next to me there's this large pissed bird, singing loudly and doing rude things with her iPhone. Bloody won't travel cattle class next time I tell yer

    and he is probably thinking "Why do I always end up sitting next to some weirdo?"

    But it could be worse. Instead of smelling of tulips he might have smelled like faeces.
