The Boom Town Rats....

....don't like Monday's

Rat Faced

Blindo'd

Mash up

Smelly mutton kebabs, burnt cornish pasties, wine puke and pungent vinegar on chips....it's home time for the 'rat faced' after a well deserved night out on the tiles.

Sneaky cig on platform 6 at La Finsbré Parké

Smokin' tunes

This absolutely wasted gentleman, carrying a see through bag full of croissants, was whistling the theme tune to Corrie between puffs and when he finished the sig, he stuffed his face with the croissants. Brilliant! He is what I call a national treasure.

The Golden Girls

"I remember the days when you could go to Canvey Island and back and have a fish supper with a bottle of sherbert all for half a crown!"


"You're heart is true, you're a pal and a confidante."



Friday's shady underworld on the 9:02 to Kings Cross

There was an eerie mood on my carriage this morning. Not sure if I was being paranoid or what but it's as if the Mafioso had decided to take control. People were polite, no phone screachers and no pushing and shoving. The Mafia had us all under manners.

Step on his foot, he'll blow your head off

The Don

Contract killer, ready to whack

"I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to fuckin' amuse you?"

Henpecked

Patience of a Saint

I see this poor bloke every night on the train and he's constantly getting it in the ear from his missus. Looks like he's about to flip out big time, William Foster stylie, in Falling Down.

Thursday on the met line to Touristsville (aka Baker Street)

Due to oversleeping, scrambled egg down my front and delayed over ground, I had to brave the rush hour underground...

Oh dear! He looks just like, how I feel this morning

Gene Kelly here, could not stop tapping his feet...

.... is he on his way to Queens Way or Broadway? I'm suprised ol' twinkle toes didn't get up and give us a full rendition of Singin' in The Rain, what with todays weather an' all

Wednesday whining

One of those days when the whole carriage is subjected to listening to the loud conversation of a woman on her blower going on about this, that and the other....

He's biting his lip

(Loving the cropped, cloth tie)

The Culprit!

This loud mouth should get a train ASBO! Put a sock in it love and while your at it, cover up them baps.

Tuesday's treasure's on the 8:02 to Kings Cross

Late night?

Wandering eye

Ground Hog Day - Monday morning on the 8:02 to Kings Cross

The jammy devil got the last table seat





The cancelled 17:57 to Welwyn Garden....why? Wait for it....

....due to no available drivers! You have got to be blimmin well kidding - at least lie and say it was due to signal failure or something. Luckily the light at the end of my tunnel were this wonderful lot.



Sparko!

Brother reminds me of  Rev Henry Kane from Poltergeist II



A sneaky pic from the weekend

The Rat Race Stalker has been on vacation but I couldn't resist this flamboyant gent - it's the jet black spray on hair that caught my attention.


This barnet's screaming out party time



Carriage book worms on the 8:12 to Moorgate

Kindle Surprise

Metro Guilty Pleasures

This stallion's old faithful, the Racing Post

Private Eye, keeping abreast of  currant affairs

Geoffrey Archer's Eagle Trap

This lot are so engrossed in their literature, I bet they wouldn't even notice the royal family whizzing by doing the conga.

Dress down Wednesday

Eh up, its the Blues Brother

Hot and sticky on the 9:02 to Kings Cross

Sexy hairy chest, where's ya medallion?

Sweaty pits, clammy hands and parched as a raisin....man, where's the free evian at?

The early bird catches the worm

"Does this train go to Lice-ester square?"

....Nope! But it does go to Leicester Square.
I LOVE AMERICAN PENSIONERS! especially when they look like Dr.Quincy and wear breast high trousers.

Carry on up the Rat Race

Ooooh Matron!

Cheeky devil!

Was I on the set of a Carry on flick this morning? (Kenny and Hattie?)

Another day another dollar

Chin up lad!

Brother really looks like he can't be arsed to go in today and that tie's gradually getting looser throughout this journey. Hmmm I reckon he wishes he'd pulled a sicky.

Dressed for Success

Apparently this guy is some kind of business guru. Sod business, I just wanna squeeze those amazing cheaks

Monday morning blues on the 8:02 to Kings Cross

I love these guys, they were all trying so hard not to fall asleep but the zzzz's got the better of  them. The weekend was just not long enough for these fella's.
