When I took the train to London with Kirstin in November there was a guy who had some huge headphones on, possibly listening to music, although he was also playing on some handheld games console, though could have been playing games on a cell phone. The **** thing bleeped and chimed so loud the whole carraige could hear it, the carraige became half empty by the first stop.

I guess it is one way of making sure you have a seat to yourself!
