jimmy boo Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Euston to Glasgow train, stops at Preston and because of a cancelled train a huge load of people get on. A perfectly nice French family ask one scheme goblin (with standard neck tattoo and bottle of cider in hand) if she could move out of their reserved seats. Instant heads gone about her having a reserved seat in another carriage that she couldn’t sit in and she’s not moving because her kids need seats. French family stand awkwardly for a bit unsure of what to do but too nice to tell her to f**k off. Eventually her jakey pals shout down to her that they’ve got spare seats so she moves up whilst trying to tell everyone around her how rude the person was to her and how heartless she was wanting to sit in her reserved seat when it would mean her kids wouldn’t have one. I fucking hate people.Did you punch her in the pie? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She probably would’ve laid me out if I’d tried anything tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday's train home, one seat left but some snooty looking, middle aged Weirdo goth has her bag on it. Twice I ask her to kindly move her stuff and get total dingyed. This train is packed out. A moment later, pushing his way past many disgruntled passengers comes some smelly, fat, 20 something with a blue's Brothers hat trying to make himself look hipster. They're a couple clearly. Forgetting myself I call them c***s and move on to find a nice seat on the stairs. First come first seated no? If you're too fat and stupid to get on first, tough shit no? Or should I make some "train friends Ohhhhh friends" in the hope of grabbing a seat during rush hour? Had some arseholes try something similar on the last train from Edinburgh to Glasgow about a year ago. Was in the middle of the festival, so the train is absolutely heaving. Looks like standing room only, but I spot 2 empty seats at a table of four. Me and Mrs OSP go to sit down, only for the two plonks in the other seats to say "Sorry, out friends are sitting there". When I asked where they were, they said "They're getting on at Falkirk..." Get yourself to f**k arseholes. They can stand like everyone else is having to do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Anyone care to guess which village in Fife they are from?Has got to be that bastion of h**nery, Markinch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted August 6, 2018 Author Share Posted August 6, 2018 Has got to be that bastion of h**nery, Markinch.Seems unlikely. Why would they drive to Kirkcaldy from Markinch? The next stop would be Markinch. Granted, they looked stupid enough to do that but there isn’t a pub there called The Masons, Masons Arms or anything of that ilk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 No seat reservations on this morning's train but it's not an issue because there are 3 people in an 80 seater carriage. Neither of these facts stopped a tory bat from coming up to me and announcing "that's 76a, I've booked that". c**t 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the stops a huge fat guy gets on and comes and sits in “his” reserved seat beside me despite the rest of the train being basically empty and him having the option of sitting in numerous places where he’d have two seats to himself as he requires. Sat for about 5 mins then asked to get out, took my stuff and sat in a different seat. Felt a bit of a dick as the guy clearly knew I was moving because he was a fat fucker and was crushing me against the wall, but at the same time why wouldn’t you just sit in a free row ffs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 c***s in a plane dropping bombs that don't explode on impact, resulting 70 odd years later in a station being closed and train delays and cancelations resulting in me being late as f**k getting home tonight when I'm meant to be up at 5am. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Train operators to blame for this. Fatso wanted his booked seat because other people may board later with claims on the empty seats. Both scotrail and Virgin fail to mark reserved seats correctly leading to confrontations like yours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
