Seen on the Tube

On the Central Line, this morning:
  • A man with clear skin, bright blue eyes and a very shiny wedding ring, reading "Film Studies: an introduction".
  • A heavily pregnant woman with dramatic eye make-up wearing elbow-length black snakeskin gloves.
  • Five people in one carriage wearing yellow hi-vis jackets.  This season's new trend perhaps.
  • A young woman with a new manicure, blowing her nose on a Miffy handkerchief.
  • Three long, handknitted, chunky scarves, wound round the necks of three men with bad colds, all sitting next to each other.
  • Seven bossy instructions at the entrance to Leytonstone station.
