Random moments on a welsh train

Here i am on a god early train from deepest wales to birmingham trying
to get some sleep.

The train stops to pick up some passengers including a very loud woman
with a joss stone-esque indeterminate accent.

even though my eyes are closed she starts reciting her life history to
noone in particular, about how she is heading to the lake district,
how she was doing some on the job training but they were charging her
a fortune in accomodation but thats ok because she is in line to run a
bar in new york where there are a lot of celebrities.

thats when i open my eyes to see what kind of chatty glamorous new
york bar manager would be going on a very early morning train in mid
wales. And its a very young woman (almost a teenager) clasping onto
both her huge bags (a sure sign of a naive traveller). Using some kind
of toy rabbit as her pillow. The temptation to laugh is somewhat
overwhelming ...
