11 mins till my train & the woman at the ticket window in front of me asks about an offer on the Eurostar. The lady behind the window Googles.
The queue grows.
7 mins till my train & she now asks if she can buy a carpark ticket for June. The lady checks. No she can't.
The queue grows more.
5 mins till my train & she says, "While I'm here can I renew this?"
The queue groans.
2 mins to my train ? she leaves. Avoiding all eye contact.
Breathless, ticket in hand, I leap through closing train doors.
@Documentally Don't be so fucking English about it. Tap her on the shoulder and say, Excuse me, I just need to buy a simple ticket so I don't miss my train, and then you can go back to chitter chatter about what the future may hold. Being English as well she will of course apologise over your apology.
