    What's the other guy supposed to do?

    Chucking them on the floor is no solution.Sitting on them or putting the in the rack above the seat is a bit rude if they're your gloves - and he has no way to check without being a **** and waking you up.

    All this social awkwardness could have been avoided if you'd taken the simple precaution of putting a plastic dog turd on top of the gloves before going to sleep. I always carry a fake dog turd with me for exactly this sort of scenario.

    Why even spend decent money on a plastic one, when real ones are free?

    Putting a knife, fork and napkin with it guarantees you have a whole carriage to yourself.

    I could have also employed the other tactic of getting two seats to myself.

    As people walk by I usually gesture them to sit down by patting the empty seat next to me. Works a treat, no one has ever sat down next to me when I've done that.

    Or dangle a bit of string out of the corner of your mouth before going to sleep. Would you sit beside a guy who has string hanging out his mouth?

    The South Bank is great. In fairness it's just the rush hour that's the pain in the arse - and the buses can be a bit of a trial as so many people do not get the concept of queuing these days.

    I'm beginning to think you did it on purpose in the hope some one would say or do something,Monday morning blues sort of thing.If I found the gloves I would have put them on another seat or ****ed them out of the window.

    Knowing my luck the moment I'd picked them up some all in wrestler would have appeared and accused me of knicking them. As if, as I said they were manky scabby looking things and I did not want to touch them.

    He probably thought you were a **** or a ***** and decided to bully you.

    More likely he thought he could be a wideo and I would not notice the gloves hitting me. "Mr Big Man" when it comes to dealing with sleeping strangers.
