Wife On the Edge

I took a secret photo on the tube last week. A lady reading crapmag Take A Break - she was totally engrossed in the Wife On The Edge article. I think the passenger next to her noticed me - although I didn't notice him at the time.

I love the contrast in aware/unawareness between the two passengers.

He could have been a secret civil servant (he looks the part) losing sensitive information on a train.

I hope she gets her degree in hot young designing before becoming a wife on the edge.
Nice shot.

Maybe he was just glaring anyway, out of sheer unnecessary and malevolent meanness. People do that a lot on the Piccadilly Line. Especially if you've had best part of two bottles of red wine and are running through McCarthy's "The Enraged Will Inherit The Earth" at not even the very top of your voice, I find. Tossers.

I like the photo, they're both quite sweet.

Wow, is that Muriel Gray? God she's changed! I didn't realise The Tube was still on. I must have been away too long!

The young bloke looks like he's going for his i-Pod.

Yes Momo I'm fine but can't get onto blogger to post - I think it's broken. A bit like the world economy really! ;-) xx

Billster - Yes - I recently realised that I think the flash was one - ha ha. She was so engrossed she didn't notice.

Violet - ha - yes - the Piccadilly Line is a mixed bag most days I find. Sat next to a teenager with what was extreme ADD yesterday - kept banging his fists on his legs constantly - awful.

Piley - she was transfixed by the story she really was.

Chazza - too much info Mrs! ;-)

Dave - stupid boy!

Dickley - yes and glaring at me at the same time I think!

Everybody - I would blog about my amazing feat of kindness that I preformed this week but Blooger is broken - back soon. Mwah mwah mwah XXXX

Are these two an item? I'm not sure he's got in his locker to satisfy a woman of her stature.

I won't do public transport until they have first class carriages again.

If I did I would probably read Take a Break concealed inside my FT.

Nice photo.
