"... And have you noticed how everyone looks on the train? No one smiles! It's like someone just died in their family!"
"... Saff, it's public transport, not American Idol."
"...Or a bit of deodorant - you should have smelled the armpit I was shoved into this morning!"
"But you know what I really hate? It's when they sit there and pick their noses!" "And it's always this middle aged man with a mole on his cheek, ugly fat gold rings on his fingers and a long nail on his last finger!"
