Some excellent advice in this thread for anyone keen on really pissing off their fellow passengers.
About to read a book while travelling by train. Would welcome any tips on how to do it performatively.

Going to put this on front of you again. The news moves on, but the problems faced by those living in Jamaica are still there.
I know many of you will already have done something to help the people of Jamaica, but if you felt like helping a specific family, this is the GoFundMe set up by my son’s girlfriend for her relatives, who find themselves in dire straits. Every bit helps, shares appreciated. gofund.me/9b5b74984

Love it when the BBC’s
In the news and the BBC has to report on it.
