Docklands Station
This is the lovely new Docklands Station in the city. It’s very nice. All clean looking. It’s not where I meant to end up though. I was meant to end up in Connolly, the bigger station that the train to Belfast leaves from, and the station that 90% of the trains that go from my nearest station go to.
Grrrr.
So, I had an unplanned walk to get on the train. Not the end of the world really.
Being cunning, I’d reserved my seat. Someone was sitting in it though.
Grrrr again.
Assertive hat on, I politely explained that he was in my seat. Then I kind of ruined the assertiveness thing by apologising and saying that I really liked window seats.
That sorted out a gentleman has sat beside me who kinda smells.
Good thing I love train journeys!

Next time I see you (?) you’re going to have to explain to me how to set up my phone to post to my blog. I’ve got it to post to A blog, but not MY blog. Eh. Anyway, I hope the smelly man doesn’t stay long.

You know, we’ve been told (by ScotRail personnel, even) that the seat reservation doesn’t really matter - that they have to issue a seat reservation, but nobody pays any attention to it. It seems to be the case over this side of the water.
