    From sunny Glasgow
    Couple across from me are loudly attempting a crossword together.
    They are terrible at it.

    Is it rude to shout out the answers?

    Only give the wrong answers, it’s more fun…..

    Yes.
    The correct London response is to mumble the answer followed by the phrase “**** idiots”. 😀

    Are they a Scottish couple? If so tell them that the answer to everything is independence.

    Are they Weegies or Londoners? One of these is more likely to stab you

    Quietly sing the answers and see if they notice.

    Aye and the other is more likely to completely ignore or walk by you when you’re lying stabbed.

    Some of the clues so far:
    Racehorse that disappeared

    Film set in Iran staring Ben Affleck

    St Paul waa converted on the way to this city:

    Country bodering Vietnam four letters

    I’m pretty sure it’s not the Times cryptic

    That is the times – saw it earlier but I couldn’t get these ones either

    Racehorse – that disappeared!

    Stollion ?

    Film set in Iran staring Ben Affleck ?

    Shah Wars ?

    St Paul waa converted on the way to this city:

    McCartney, I suspect: Liverpool (pretty confident of this due to the “wah” ref, though I had to chop out one of the o’s)

    Country bo(w)d(l)ering

    ory – no, wait that’s 3 letters

    Get into Coach C where the bar is 😉
    That’s what I did Monday last week on the way back from Kendal.

    On the way to Coach C now! I’ll shout the answers on the way passed. Cans of Grolsch are very reasonable

    And for these reasons on this line, I always travel in the quiet coach.

    I was born in London, so I genetically more distant the farther from The North(tm)/closer to The Centre of the Western World.

    The racehorse that disappeared is Lord Lucan.

    How many cans of Grolsch are we on then ?
    Has he thrown his learned fellow passengers out of the window…
    My money’s on a three-way in the WC.

    Ipod and staring out the window is the only way to travel by rail. I’d have to shout out the answers though. 😛

    Richard did I just see you? Leicester square way? Looking wide eyed and wearing double snow-wash denim asking people the way to the Hard Rock Cafe?

    People who hum on trains should be executed. That’s hum in both senses of the word.
