    I don't know if you intended the script to have an element of ironic comedy to it but this is how I read it. (You know, when your day has been absolutely crap and you end up sitting next to the wierdo on the bus etc.) I think, perhaps, it might have been great to have mentioned what was in the bag; I really wanted to know. Maybe a sexy thong? Maybe a cute teddy bear? Something comical but completely useless to the rantor, perhaps, that he could react to. Anyway, I enjoyed the story. Well done David and keep writing.

    Agree with Kim - would loved to have known what was in the bag and seen the Ranting Man's reaction to it. Otherwise I thought the bit about being in the gaps as opposed to being on the platform was a really clever analogy.
