McGoohan May 2019 4:54pm, 31 May 2019 39,789 posts	0 McGoohan It’s the easiest way to Reading for us unfortunately
NDWDave May 2019 5:03pm, 31 May 2019 9,534 posts	0 NDWDave I was tempted to make about a joke about the wicked witch of the west [I work in natural perils insurance and Kansas does have a lot of tornadoes]
The Mighty Fleecy May 2019 5:18pm, 31 May 2019 46,394 posts	0 The Mighty Fleecy Yes that’s true McG. When I go to and from Guildford I have a choice of lines so I tend to do SWR even though it’s loads slower just because GWR trains are so annoying! Very random chat with Sheena in the garden.

PaulaMc May 2019 5:49pm, 31 May 2019 8,207 posts	0 PaulaMc I don't think I've ever avoided a journey because of the particular types of trains on that line. But then I don't use trains anywhere near as much as Fleecy and McGoohan so I bow to their greater wisdom on this subject.
The Mighty Fleecy May 2019 6:09pm, 31 May 2019 46,395 posts	0 The Mighty Fleecy Well they’re noisy, tiny (3 carriages), dirty and filled with annoying people with GIGANTIC FUCKING SUITCASES (GFS) in case you’re wondering Paula
McGoohan May 2019 6:13pm, 31 May 2019 39,790 posts	0 McGoohan I couldn’t sit because of all the gigantic suitcases on the seats.
McGoohan May 2019 6:14pm, 31 May 2019 39,791 posts	0 McGoohan Anyway. In Reading now and about to go get fed. Well in half an hour.
The Mighty Fleecy May 2019 6:20pm, 31 May 2019 46,396 posts	0 The Mighty Fleecy Yes the most annoying thing about the GFSes is the way people occupy the limited number of seats with them. Like anyone will want to steal their selection of giant velour tracksuits. And the fact that an airport train has crap suitcase storage facilities.
