Observations of a travelling Cracker

Holly travelling from Belfast to Drogheda.
  • No matter how many songs you listen to, there is nothing quite as typical as your music player going dead just at the "Ch-ch-ch" part of david Bowie's "Changes"
  • No matter how carefully you catch the crumbs of your danish pastry, you will always forget, typically at the last mouthful, and spill the flakes all over yourself.
  • This will give off the impression that you have been shaving a tree.
  • It is impossible to look even remotely attractive while eating said pastry.
  • Yes, that couple over there across from you are gagging for sex.
  • That is why they have been wearing face for the past three quarters of an hour.
  • That couple also think that you are a fat cow because of your clear love for Danish pastrys, seeing as on their last count you had ten of them
  • What that couple do not realise it that you have not had ten seperate pastrys, but instead have been eating very small parts broken off one big pastry.
  • This was in attempt to not look very unattractive
  • Besides, even if the pastry had two thousand calories, it hardly matters seeing as only about twenty five of them actually make it to my mouth.
  • Note to self... next time you travel... bring more than one change of clothes with you. You smelled pretty gross.
  • On the plus side, noone attempted to sit beside me.... that meant more room/pastrys haha
  • Just because the bus is meant to go through your town...
  • Just because you specifically ASK the driver to go through that town....
  • Does not mean the driver will actually stop in that town.
  • However, he will be very nice when he realises his mistake and drop you off at your friendly neighbourhood giant airport.
  • When you ask the indian shopkeeper where the nearest toilet is, do not expect any more help than "the toilet is in the airport"
  • Nor should you look for signs. There are none.
  • When you finally get a coach going back to your town, please resist the urge to get sick, even though you dont travel very well.

Travelling with cracker.

Always fun
