5th May, 2018.
Yep: I’m at work, today.
And … ?
Frankly, I’m looking forward to tomorrow.
That’ll be my first day off for some time!
~≈§≈~
Can I mak a confession, here?
I’m both curious … and still, mildly concerned.
Coming home last night, I caught my usual train home: the 22·26 from Platform One, at Chelmsford Station.
A girl — well, young woman — was one the bench next to me … asleep.
Well …
Certainly on the way to being asleep.
I managed to briefly wake her up, long enough to ask if she was OK.
She said, “Yeah …”
Rather quietly.
And started snoozing, again.
I was mildly concerned.
Granted, Chelmsford isn’t Syria: or even London, where things can get hairy.
But I really wanted to alert one of the staff, just to make sure some one was keeping an eye on her.
Which is when my train decided to turn up.
Frankly? I had to grab that.
But felt I had to do something.
I tweeted …
Greater Anglia, the people who actually run Chelmsford Station, were at least good enough to send a reply.@greateranglia there's a girl asleep on platform 1, at #ChelmsfordStation Can someone there wake her? Didn't like leaving her on her own at this time of night— Paul Downie (@Cuddy2977) May 4, 2018
(Can my followers rt this, please? Ta)
After that … ?Good evening Paul, we are talking with Chelmsford now and will check on her if she is still there. Thank you for bringing it to our attention. DC— Greater Anglia (@greateranglia) May 4, 2018
After that, I really couldn’t tell you what happened.
But would love to know.
