It just struck me how much your description of the Quaker meeting describes my commute to work. I haven't changed many words in the following:

* * *
It's Monday morning, or, as the workers call it, First Day of the Week. You join the others at the station. It's simple, unadorned. You go sit quietly on one of the trains. People don't smile at each other, and nobody says a blessed word.

And it stays that way for nearly an hour. Until the train arrives at Waterloo. Then you all go outside and walk to the tube...

smiley - rofl So the moral is, to the British, commuting is a spiritual exercise?

The only difference is that an officious little man in an ex-Stasi uniform demands I spend vast sums of money on a ticket.

smiley - laugh How true.

Back in 1975, I was utterly amazed at the cheapness of the Underground.

I could get places for 5p. I couldn't believe it!

The weirdest journey I took was between Knesington and Elephant and Castle. As I remember it, it was an epic journey, involving about four lines, and a lot of subterranean level changing. But the price was surprisingly low.

It may be true that commuting is a spiritual experience for many of those Monday morning commuters. I can guarantee it that a lot of those people sitting there in silence with their eyes closed are inwardly saying "Oh God..."
