Hello everyone, Haven't sent out some transcripts for a while (Sorry about that) So here we go....

Nick: Warrington.

Caller: Hello Nick

Nick: Hello.

Caller: I want to talk about British Rail staff and one in particular.

Nick: o.k. don't name names.

Caller: I won't. He works at a local station and every time I go to buy a ticket and that he's usually sat on his backside drinking a cup of tea.

Nick: Yeah, that's what they're supposed to do isn't it ? You see the film The Railway Children that's all they do, Bernard Cribbins he's in there making tea.

Caller: Yeah.

Nick: It's part of their job description. Sit on their fat hairy arses and brew (Pause) and stew.

Caller: Yeah. Every time I bang on the window to get his attention...

Nick: Well why are you making his life a living hell ? why are you Banging on his window ?

Caller: 'cause I've only got a couple of minutes for my train...

Nick: Oh so you don't have time to actually physically beat him to the ground so just banging on his window is about as much as you can manage.

Caller: Yeah.

Nick: Well, yeah I can understand that.

Caller: And he threatens to kick me off.

Nick: Really !? He threatens to get off with you ?

Caller: Yeah, he's a bit of a trainspotter.

Nick: Well he would be because that's what he does. (Pause, Nick sighs) O.K. see you. (Nick laughs)
