Rant number 357
I am, as many rants previous will have suggested - a man who favours his own form of transport. Ipso facto - I drive everywhere I generally can.
The reasons for this I have already explained. To paraphrase essentially- I don't like to be surrounded by the generally public- who do not wash and who cough too much an who have rabies and cholera and the like.
Tonight however, some good friends were getting married and I fancied a drink - so I've got the train.
Typically however, this was harder than originally thought.
You see, you plan around a particular train to get you home at a particular time - which is then delayed/cancelled etc. just as you are waiting for it.
I've completely lost track of the amount of times this has happened to me. For a commuter - it must be completely infuriating. Yes the motorway can be a bitch - and sometimes it even gets closed. It never gets cancelled though - and there is always another way.
Trains are really crap - and I do not miss using them regularly!
Rant over.
