A friend is bored on a long train journey, what can he do to entertain himself? Ali
Play the nutter game. Sit next to a random passenger and ask a question like "Do you like peas?" If they answer yes go off on a "I've been collecting them for years! I've got some from ...".
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done. Drink. Get drunk. Fall over - P O'H OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre I cannot live by bread alone. Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett

If he has a mobile, have him join CP and visit the lounge. [tongue planted firmly in cheek]...
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

Could make a mockumentry on how the journey is very boring. However that could contradict itself coz making a mockumentry would make the journey interesting. But its mockumentry, so...

You could discuss the CPFL and how you are at the top of it? You can show-off by saying how in-depth your cricket knowledge is and how you've picked the best players so far.

The only problem with that is when you get the answer "Yes! I've been collecting them for years! I've got some from ..."

Not exactly a challenge, from the inside. How about Zebra spotting instead? Ok, it's going to be difficult to read the serial number as the train speeds along, but you could always take a picture and scan the barcode later...

Tell your friend to alert the conductor of a strange unattended package... when the conductor tells your friend it is another passenger, your friend should reply with one of the following remarks... 1. I think your job has started to effect your judgement. 2. So if I poke it then it won't blow up? 3. Why are there other people on my train? 4. Why are there other people on my plane???
My opinions are right, and yours are wrong! (or at least that is my opinion)

There was an April Fools joke in Derby a number of years ago that they were going to replace train numbers with barcodes, and platforms would have readers mounted on their ends, or train spotters could buy their own handheld units. There was concern that it would interfere with the tills in the nearby Asda.

Last week I went back to Europe for business and then had to travel with a train from Sofia to the sea cost to visit my grandparents (aged 90 and 92). The summary was four airplanes – 20 hours in the air 30 with the connection stops and security and 18 hours with a train. 48 hours on a small seats and I’m 185 sm tall. How I handle to keep my sanity and live through all this? The answer is Kindle!
