Me to driver...'Your drivings REALLY erratic mate, being on the phone isnt helping' 
I said it without blowing up, just purposeful and to get the point over...
I'd been (along with maybe 6 other cars at different stages) following this train of traffic with the fella at the head speeding up, slowing down, going slow, holding everyone up, driving erratically. They're the worst, people get fustrated and make silly moves to get the hell out of the way of them.
About 4 miles later, i'm now driving directly behind the same guy ...phone clamped to his ear. He's excessively slowing down at bends, then speeds up, then eases off...its so fustrating.
Eventually overtook him and then held my mobile out of the window to hopefully get the message across to him.
We came up to a junction, he's now got nowhere to go...
Got out of the car and walked back to him,..
'Your drivings REALLY erratic mate, being on the phone isnt helping'
'Yeah, sorry, i blah blah' (couldnt catch exactly why) but he seemed quite apologetic.
Point's been made, walk back to the car and off....

Waiting to board the train to Manchester, doors won't be opened until they've coupled the empty unit up with the one arriving from Middlesborough. This arrives, and the doors on that unit open.
Young woman next to me pushes door button impatiently.
Young Woman: God, why don't they open the doors, I could have got on the other on and walked through.
Me and Her Friend, at the same time: Not through the cabs of two trains you couldn't.
YW: Oh yeah,
Me: They have to wait until they're coupled up.
YW: yeah, they've done all that!
Empty train edges forward a few inches towards other train.
Me, to myself: Well, clearly, they hadn't!

£300..crap.
Sat in the pub last night and there is a young couple in their early 20's across form us.
They are obviously work colleagues, and she is obviously besotted with him.
They are discussing a conference they are going to and she suggests that they could save money by sharing a room.
He states that he really likes his own room.
She replies that it would enable them to discuss what has happened during the day, and so on, making it very obvious that she wants to share a room, even to the point of mentioning a lack of nightwear. She was not being "tarty", but making her intentions very clear.
We were not sure whether he was oblivious to the agenda and not picking up the signals, or really did want his own room..... but his reasons for insistence on the separate rooms was very weak.
I would loved to know what was going on, but it would not have been polite.

If you heard all of that, then you were close enough to just lean over and wisper in the guys ear "She is giving you signals, just go for it!".
