My YumYumTS Days

So I'm back to travelling to work by local train(MMTS)...and inspite of people rolling their eyes, I guess the trick to travelling by train is to catch the right one at the right time (incredibly, there are two trains at Begumpet station just 5 mins apart and one is always jam-packed while the other's empty), ensure you have a first class pass and preferably travel in groups. A newspaper and an iPod do help.
Train journeys are great at times.. It's fun to watch people's reactions when they realise they have accidentally boarded the first class section ..they act like they have stepped on a hot tin roof and jump right out... then there was the time that a cop and sniffer dog(a cute Labrador) got on.. and people would step in , see the dog and act like they encountered E.T. and step back on the platform !.. the dog however was nonplussed.. didn't even bother when people stepped on his tail..Then, the other day at the station, I was busy poring over my crossword, when suddenly I realised two urchins on either side of me, intently looking down at my paper like they could help me with 23 Across. They were so cute!
