Public Transport TraumaCompletely Underwhelmed writes, "I was on a bus the other day when a man got on wearing shorts, over what looked like greeny grey leggings. Then the stench hit me. The 'leggings' were a mass of open wounds, crusted with greenish solidified pus that flaked off in bits as he moved."
What's the worst public transport experience you've ever had?

Peter WingleWas once sat on a train going from Euston to Stafford. Sat oposite me was a Liverpudlian man in a suit.
He was making lots of phonecalls, and at the start of each one he would annouce "Alright, mate? It's Peter Wingle here . . . " Every time. And for some reason I found the sound of his name hilarious. Still do. Try saying it to yourself over and over: "Peter Wingle, Peter Wingle, Peter Wingle. . . "
Halfway into the journey I was having serious problems keeping a straight face. Giggles kept erupting from me every time he said his name. I was reduced to stuffing my hand into my mouth and breathing heavily, which may have looked a little odd.
Is it me? Is there something intrinsically funny about the name, or am I strange?

That's great!I laughed.
I did read it as "Peter Wriggle" at first, but still funny.
I met someone called Quintin Quilly once.
I nearly died laughing.
