I hopped on the train today to come home, it was hot & a bit stuffy. After a few stops the train was full and a guy had sat beside me. Here is what transpired on twitter……..

Not only do i NOT know this guy but i was also not checking my reply tweets. I had therefore not seen the above tweet! So when he also placed earphones in & seemed to be falling asleep i twittered this unwittingly…..
On the train who has the middle arm
Rest? Not me apparently!!! Here sit on my lap sure!!! No take my shirt!!
(I have since hastily deleted that tweet from my twitter feed, tho it is still on facebook)
I still wasn’t checking my replies when he replied with this…….

I got home & realized what had happened & then i said this…….

the “haha” & “lol” was a nervous response when i realized this guy had just been insulted by me! And he knew! He sat beside me & did not react!

and he said

and yes, i affirmed my status as an idiot & welcomed a ‘hi’ next time he sees me instead of the slap i deserve!


Over the weekend we managed to catch a bit of the Glastonbury Festival on T.V. The highlight for me was Bruce Springsteen who headlined the Pyramid Stage (pictured after the festival) on saturday evening, though i was really impressed with Blur, who headlined on sunday night. Over the weekend other artists who played were Neil Young, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Crosby Stills & Nash, Lily Allen, Fleet Foxes, Spinal Tap, Tom Jones, Bon iver and loads more.
