How lovely . . . here I am on a Thameslink train to Farringdon that’s been reduced from 8 carriages to 4 due to a fault. In the rush hour. Good timing. On a train that I can usually sit down on, it was already full of people. Luckily I managed to strategically place myself on the platform so I was the first person to get on the train. Even so, I’m still having to stand for half an hour. Ho hum. Moan over.
