Robbie does not enjoy his journey to work as much as he used to. The timetable changed on Monday so now he has to cross the over bridge to catch his train, meaning that he has had to re-time his whole morning routine! To make matters worse they now have 321's on that service instead of 350's and I have had to listen to dark mutterings about it for days. Robbie claims that they are not as comfortable, he says that they are nothing more than a box with a pantograph on top. I am rather fond of 321's, mainly because of the colour, it reminds me so much of the Cadbury's Dairy Milk colours, it makes them look friendly - but it doesn't make them run on time!!
Anyway, I finally discovered why Robbie doesn't like 321's it is because the seating is arranged differently. He doesn't like having to sit looking at people - not that weird when you think about it. I have travelled on that service a few times and you need more than a strong coffee to cope with some of the sights you encounter at that time of the morning! Actually I feel rather sorry for anyone who had to sit too close to Robbie this morning. He had eaten something evil while at work yesterday and he absolutely stank of garlic, it was bad enough to knock you over!
