A funny thing happened to me...
A funny thing happened to me last friday.I'd gone to London to do some shopping, and I needed to find some books for my course at college( you see,I 'm a student). I caught an early trainto London , so by early afternoon I'd bought everything that I wanted. Anyway , I'm not very fond of London, all the noise and traffic, and I'd made some arrangements for that evening . So, I took a taxi to Waterloo station. I can't really afford taxis, but I wanted to get the 3.30 train. Unfortunately the taxi got stuck in a traffic jam, and by the time I got to Waterloo, the train has just gone. I had to wait an hour for the next one.
I bought an evening newspaper, the Standard ,and wandered over to the station buffet.At that time of day it's nearly empty. so I bought a coffe and a packet of biscuits.... chocolate biscuits. There were plenty of empty tables and I found one near the window. I sat down and began doing the crossword puzzles.
After a couple of minutes a man sat down opposite me. There was nothing special about him, except that he was very tall. In fact he looked like a typical city businessman ... you know , dark suit and briefcase . I didn't say anything and I carried on with my crossword . Suddenly he reached across the table , opened my packet of biscuits, took one ,dipped it into his coffee and dopped it into his mouth . I couldn't believe my eyes! I was too shocked to say anything. Anyway ,I didn't want to make a fuss , so I decided ignore it . I always avoid trouble if I can. I just took a biscuit myself and went back to my cross word.
When the man took a second biscuit, I didn't look up and I didn't make a sound. I pretended to be very interested in the puzzle . After a couple of minutes, I casually put out my hand , took the last biscuit and glanced at the man . He was staring at me furiously . I nervously put the biscuit in my mouth , and decided to leave . I was ready to get up and go when the man suddenly pushed back his chair , stood up and hurried out of the buffet . I felt very relieved and decided to wait two or three minutes before going myself . I finished my coffee , floded my newspaper and stood up . And there , on the table, where my newspaper had been, was my packet of biscuits.
