I was on the Central Line today. I noticed a striking looking woman

Very small, but it just about made my day. No-one had told her it was
mandatory to studiously ignore everyone else on the tube. She
actually
acted in a human and pleasant way. Good for her.

But was it, indeed, a nice tie? Maybe she was taking the p*ss ;-)

Went through my mind too. That just proves how cynical we've become.
I'm sure she was genuine.

The tie was, I suppose, not bad. It has white dogs on a navy
background looking a bit like Space Invaders, with each row separated
by some thin lighter blue lines. I think I bought it at Austin Reed at
Stansted when on a trip and I'd forgotten to pack one.

Anyway - don't care if she was taking the **** - still cheered me up.


In any event she was referring to the bloke from Bangkok who was sat next
to
you

Ah, but I bet she didn't shake her Tic-Tacs at him.
