Human Nature
So I'm trying to get home from seeing Rob XPT the other night, and both the circle and hammersmith&city lines are down. I.E. I can't get home. So I stop by a cab company only to be hailed as I press their 'call cab' button.
'Where are you going to?'
'Liverpool Street.'
'Ten Pounds'.
Now by this stage I've had a few drinks, so I'm more than happy to cough up for the fact I'm *finally* on my way home. So I get into the back.
'So, where *is* liverpool street? I've not been doing this long" he says.
'Turn right here and I'll give you directions' I sigh. 'Have you got a map?'
'No'
So, I pay a tenner to mapread myself to a station, using my own map.
And, do you know what? I was still happy just to be going home.
