Yes, it does sound rather bleak - apparently that's what
GA commuters have to face.

Unfortunately there are speed restrictions at #stratford
at the moment, so things are a little cramped. On the plus side I am on the
0740 rather than the 0759 - so it makes me feel like I am really making an
effort coming in early (albeit later than usual).
What cracks me up though is the man who would actually
rather sit in the disgusting toilet (not the seating area around the toilet
carriage, I'm talking he must be full on sitting on the toilet seat) than stand
up!! He was a rather large man, so maybe standing up was too much for him, but
to be honest, I don't know how he has managed to fit in the toilet, it's tiny
in there! I just can't wait to see when he comes out, I just want to look at
his face, and give him a "wow, well done" look. I wonder if he's in
there thinking about all the people that have done their business in there,
never mind the other things that doesn't bear thinking about! (yes, your fellow
travelers are filthy animals).

Okay so he has just emerged just before Liverpool Street,
he actually flushed the chain before he came out, so perhaps it was just the
world's longest toilet session? Funnily enough, he has gone through the doors
to the next carriage, so I imagine he knows that I am judging him.
