Sonia, that is truly horrible!

That's awful - your journey must have seemed endless.

I've only just seen this comment - very funny & I totally agree with your reaction. Your colleague is obviously not a Londoner - we're notorious for not speaking to other commuters on the Tube! Someone tried to start a campaign this summer to get people talking, & there was a massive reaction against it.
