Long train journey

[Saleen836]

Apart from reading a book, I'm after ideas to pass the time on Monday when I will be taking a 5 and a half hour train journey..

Book
Laptop / tablet
Snooze
Headphones and listen to some new music (new music to you, not necessarily 'new' music)
Film (see laptop / tablet)
Bottle of wine (or 2)

I'm a non drinker but couldn't drink anyway as I will be driving the return journey the same day, listening to some music and snoozeing sounds like the best option

I can't even remember the last time I used a train, probably around 30 years ago!

I'm leaving Warminster on the 07.25ish train to Mansfield via Gloucester and Nottingham, looks like they have assigned me an aisle seat so will see how I get on, if I keep twitching my head and mumbling I doubt anyone will want to sit next to me!

You're coming to Mansfield?

Don't get on the train.

It is a case of needing not wanting to go there

I'm home!
the journey up passed alot faster than I expected, no problem getting a seat and had the company of a lovely chatty young lady sitting next to me from Trowbridge to Bristol Temple Meads, from Gloucester for approx 15minutes the carriage had to endure the whole loud conversation (or one half) between a female and someone named 'babe', other than that the journey was uneventfull, the drive home was also uneventfull.
