    Has anyone else noticed that the trains are now packed to the gunnels with guys who are dressed like Bear Grylls?

    Every day I see middle-aged men - who would not know a mountain if one fell on them - wearing hill walking boots, North Face jackets, Craghopper pants and the ubiquitous rucksack (with a caribiner) and Cossack hats.

    Fair enough dress for emergencies in case of bad weather but you are not like to stumble across a glacier on Buchanan Street or fall down a crevasse in St Enoch square so what's the deal? Are they trying to pretend they are outdoorsy types?

    They are fooling no one, the highest thing most of these dicks have ever climbed is a bed with two matresses.

    Rant over

    I hate the styles 'rocked' by young blokes more. Patchwork jeans, elasticated at the bottom, gay little pumps as footwear, tops with hoods at the front, bowler hats worn at a jaunty angle. Mincing little pricks the lot of 'em.

    PS women too.

    Is there anything worse than women gabbing on the train? I made a snoring noise to try drop a hint. only one of them heard me though and she was the quiet one. I was ready to spit on them and I had earphones in!
