Seriously. So I was coming home today from Canterbury where I partied with my bestie last night, and I was like waaay early for my train. Usually I can hop on any train that does the route home, oh not today. "This is an advanced ticket you ordered, you have to get on the train you pre-booked... no, you can't exchange, or it will cost you £60".
Fuck off man. This is exactly the same train journey, by the same company, exactly one hour earlier than my pre-booked train, and not even at a busy time. It's not going to kill you or your company to let me ride home an hour earlier than I had planned. Also, the charge is already extortionate as it is, so you got mad balls trying to extort another £60 out of me. WTF I thought this was a recession we were in, obviously not for you, no tea, no shade. Disgrace.
On the positive side, in that hour I went for a walk around Central London and re-discovered this cute little coffee shop my ex-hanini took me to once. The owner (a transgender) even remembered me, I couldn't believe.
That's what happens when you let tories play with trains. They privatise them and fuck them up.
Meh. Can't argue with that.
It's a disgrace they were re-elected.
