Things we do to fit in"When I was fifteen," writes No3L, "I curled up in a Budgens trolley while someone pushed it through the supermarket doors to nick vodka and Benny Hedgehogs, just to hang out with my brother and his mates."
What have you done to fit in?

TrainsDon't get me started.
I have a friend in Lincoln I haven't seen in years but have kept in touch with. With the government promoting the use of public transport whenever possible(unless of course you're a Jabba-The-Hutt-esque ex-MP with 2 of a certain brand of vehicle), I decided to look into taking the train. After all, it's bound to be the fastest and cheapest isn't it? No. If I took the train it'd take me around 3 and a half, hours, with 2 changes to get there, and 4 to 4 and a half hours with 2-3 changes to get back. It'd cost me more than £50 in train fares too. Alternatively I can take my own car, leave whenever I feel like it, and expect the journey to take 2 and a half to 3 hours each way, I don't have to sit next to a mentalist (unless I invite him along for company), and I actually save money.
Big fuck off to National Rail from me then.
