Train blogging starts here…
Since the blog merge, I can sms a blog post in – and plan to do so more often. It may even be worth reading!
I feel dirty
I just pawned my personal information with 20+ vendors for the chance to win a 42-inch plasma display. Can it be worth it?

Drunks on trains
Much as I detest drunks on public transport, I’m glad they’re not trying to drive!
Worse than a late bus
What’s worse than a late or cancelled bus? An early one – and not just by a little bit … It was 10 mins early!
