Trains, Planes and Automobiles

Public transport sucks at the best of times. It sucks even more when it's busy. However, today I have a new found love for the tram. Three stops away from MeadowHELL and on climb 30 or so primary school kids, complete with teachers and annoying, high-pitched, uncontainable excitement.

Then the best thing in the world happened. The tram set off in a forward jolt, and all the kids fell over...
not just stumbled either, they proper decked it.

It was the longest 10 minutes of my life, replaying the moment over and over, whilst trying not to laugh - made worse by momentary eye contact with one of the teachers.

My face was a mixture of sucking on a lemon and constipation...
