So, my surprise trip didn’t happen. And not one of ye
guessed it! It was Oslo. Airport cancelled all flights and we
retreated to my hometown of Mayo. A very relaxing and mammied
Christmas was had by all. I’m now sitting on the train to Dublin
for the day. Am I becoming more unrealistic or hyper sensitive to
noise as I get older? Every person, it seems, on the train like to
“share” their music/games/general noise with the whole train. Which
results in mixes of tetris, Rhianna and Katy Perry. Has noone heard
of earphones or taste? We went to Japan a few years ago. On their
trains, they have a “quiet” section of the train. You are
guaranteed no noise of any kind. Just human voices really. Even the
train announcements don’t come on. A visual announcement instead.
It’s bliss actually. If we had it here, everyone would ignore it
anyway. That’s my rant over, I’m not asking for much. Or am I?
