h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

It is one of the rare pleasures of the London Underground that, should I have had a few pints and thus be talking on it to one of my friends, I always have space. Not that I have much of an accent, but it is sufficient to cause your average London Underground user to move away. Odd, but true.
The best occasion so far was myself and a friend at Tottenham Court Road Station, discussing the route on a map. This caused a massive block of people in the tunnel, as they all edged slowly passed, giving us at least a foot clearence. You Londoners are strange

Ah well makes a change to hear an accent from the british isles on the tube, especially some of the west end ones

I only heard Italians and Germans talking in the tube, some Japaneese, oh and one Swede.
And I was in London for two weeks!

Most Brits just don't talk on the underground , they just sit in their own little worlds looking miserable .

Or sleeping off the effects of too much beer

So true, so true!

>I< like the underground, it gets you where you're going. If you go on it daily, like I used to, you get to appreciate people just getting on with their business.
