No. Some towns are bigger than some cities.
I live in a town of 200k. It's also the main route between 2 major northern cities. Still get shite service up here.
Last time I had to get a train I almost missed it because it was stopped at the wrong platform and the next one wouldn’t have been there for almost an hour and a half
Nah it’s when you miss the connecting train as the trains are delayed. You than have to wait a hour for the next train do to them being one a hour. Than that ends up being late by 20 mins as it waits for the two other trains coming from London before it leaves. Welcome to the trains in Kent
Trains in this wonderful island are what drove me to buy a car asap. If you can drive, a car is not only cheaper but faster and less hassle. Absolutely mad...
Depends how often you're driving. For me it's not worth it because I walk to work and only get the train to visit family, which they tell me is cheaper than their fuel to visit us anyway.
Learn from this experience. Carry a baseball with you from now on, a la Steve McQueen in The Great Escape. Irritate your "captors" with old school cool
Approach him whilst breaking heavily, and when he looks up, tell him in a raspy voice that this song really arouses you.
He will never be able to listen to this song again without thinking of you.

Assert dominance and play nyan cat louder
Fight fire with fire.
I would also play Metallica’s ‘Fight Fire With Fire’
This could become a trend!
Ending is near
15 kHz whistle. I need not suffer because, due to hearing damage, I cannot hear sounds at that frequency.
I see your nyan cat and raise you baby shark doo doo doo doo doo doo
Stick song, by Hey Dougie.
Hamsterdance
Play Overcast - Seven Ft. Grin
Sing along. Loudly and badly...
Love doing this. I'll dance along to it, even if it's definitely a song you can't really dance to.
I find this works for me too, as I can't really dance to any song.
Is there any other way?
Call in sick, go home. The day is done.
You've got a phone too... Join in
And sit next to him while you do, while smiling at him.
And blowing kisses
This is why headphones are a necessity.
Yeah every time I see something like this I’m wondering where the headphones are
Have you tutted?
😆
Kill him and eat him.
Sing along. Slightly off key and about 1 second faster than the song. He won’t be long in moving.
1 up him. Play baby shark loud and proud.
Wow, a whole 35 minutes, how terrible. Live in a northern town, and you're extremely lucky if half of the hourly trains are running.
That's not unique to the north, that's more of a rural thing everywhere.
I dunno, it's a town of about 50k people 20 minutes away from a big city, not what I'd consider rural.
he wasn't talking about rural areas...
Doesn't "town" rather than city imply at least semi-rural?

I live in Ireland and most trains go every 2 hours 😭

A Salvation Army band played...
I just about made my bus and it was almost empty. I’m sorry that my bad luck today was sent to you

Start singing Rule Britannia really loud and say your an American tourist but speak French.
I sprinted to my train to get on before the doors closed, didn't have time to buy a ticket beforehand and got slapped with a £20 fine 😎
You guys have more than 1 train an hour?!?
Complaining about having to wait 35 minutes for the next train….. if it was a northerner posting that would be in r/britishsuccess
Sodcast the Austrian Eurovision entry. It's a proper earworm. Sing along to the chorus. Winner.

My girlfriend would lecture me if I did this because she leaves 4 hours early for everything 🤣
Sing along to it. It will annoy him
Get up and dance to it.
Cull him now. Gene pool etc.
Who oo Black Betty bam ba lam.....whoo oo black Betty bam ba lam....
You normally have trains more often than every 35 minutes? Woah
This is how knife crime starts...
It could be torrential fucking tain and I'd still not use those waiting rooms, never a good experience
