[Football] What Idiot smoked on the train
- Thread starter Munkfish
- Start date
Which train from Norwich was that, 5:27 or 6:27?
We were aiming for the latter but it was packed so we got the 7:27 with no problems and a seat.

Sorry should have been clearer it was on the way there. Was probably the 8.32 from Brighton. Left everyone changing at Ely to get on a two carriage train coming down from Liverpool.

That and the thameslink driver off Christmas shopping on the way home so cancelling the one an hour from Cambridge and the hopeless Anglian staff deciding to change the train platform at Norwich once everybody was on board the train going nowhere

Not me. I'm pleased to say I've given up for Stoptober. It's not easy but I'm very happy to have made the change!
Also I live in Oxfordshire
Never going to grumble about Southern again after that travel nightmare ..... well not for a few weeks anyway

Good luck. The urge for a cigarette will drift away and you will feel a lot better for it. 18 years for me, can't stand the things now.

Phew! Dodged a bullet on that one. I was originally going to train it until I saw that engineering works meant you would have been diverted to the moon and back. Three of us went by car and, although a long trek from Southampton, it was a problem free journey there and back.

It actually highlights the fact that had it been a southern or south eastern train the guard would have walked down and dealt with it rather than the train stopping and the driver walking down the train to sort it out
Actually it highlights the fact that some morons think they can do what they like when they like.

Very inconsiderate smoking in a public indoor space these days, but how has it managed to cause a train to be delayed??
Sets an alarm off, train has to stop, alarm investigated and be reset…….and with no conductor, driver has to do it ?

Gave up 22 years ago at Mrs Jakarata's request, she had just seen her Dad die of an aneurism.
A life long smoker since his WWII Army Days when they issued cigarettes as part of your rations!
Nice pussy.
