Since this episode I have been playing guess what the person does- it's quite fun!<br /><br />Hi MM- the tube at the weekend is a lot better- when it's working of course- there's room to breathe and sit and look at the lovely tiles at the different stations. <br /><br />Hi Daily- thank you *blushes* The Paris Metro is even better for people watching- there some absolute eccentrics on there in my experience. Old ladies with red lips and hermes scarves, thugs, chic men, bag men, those scary policement with dogs. Ah Paris- when will we meet again? <br /><br /><br />Hi Skirmishofwit- I don't forgive them all the time, just some of the time. I'm very fond of the transport museum shop- I discovered it a little tipsy and went mad for all the retro posters and goodies. One day when I have a house those posters will get to live on a wall of their own.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08459305021803770946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-618358253237839493.post-4601785413958065742009-11-09T22:26:31.704+00:002009-11-09T22:26:31.704+00:00What a coincidence - I saw a mug the other day tha...What a coincidence - I saw a mug the other day that had that London Transport poster on it - I thought it was adorable! Your post has certainly inspired me to do my best to be more forgiving of rush hour commuters.skirmishofwithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01031418191113154505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-618358253237839493.post-38938418638952404952009-11-09T21:49:27.115+00:002009-11-09T21:49:27.115+00:00I had a lot of time to ponder these very things wh...I had a lot of time to ponder these very things when I rode the Paris metro for six months (it took me an hour to get to class!).<br /><br />Beautifully written...The Daily Connoisseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13843902889491327636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-618358253237839493.post-88534310527658013742009-11-09T21:22:48.456+00:002009-11-09T21:22:48.456+00:00Now that I only take the tube on Saturdays for my ...Now that I only take the tube on Saturdays for my trips sans bebe, I got to enjoy it. It's so much quicker than a cab, and much cheaper, too. But when I was still a city girl, I hated the tube that much, I preferred an hourly ride on my scooter to work. <br /><br />You might enjoy this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqPtg_umQO4 <br />Careful, strong language included.Metropolitan Mumhttp://www.metropolitanmum.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-618358253237839493.post-53345350299449455092009-11-09T18:23:42.200+00:002009-11-09T18:23:42.200+00:00So very true.

I'm rarely in a good mood on the tube and resent having to stand when sturdy, healthy businessmen are hogging all the seats, but at times I look around and think how little we know/think about other people. <br /><br />Bloody tube, so bloody London! xxTop Bird @ Wee Birdyhttp://www.weebirdy.comnoreply@blogger.com
