It was one of those days I was on the road again.
Journey was from Aberdeen to Kirkcaldy. Took evening train, as I had university at the daytime.
Arrived in train station at 17.00. My train leaves at 17.40. I was too early, as always.
Bought my coffeé again.
Queue was amazingly short for all those people rushing around train station.
Anyway the train arrived.
76 F, couch D. Found my place. Yes- empty. No-one sitting next to me.
I took hoody out of my bag to use it as pillow. Good night.
"....next stop Dundee..."
"Excuse me. I think I am sitting next you."
"Yee Sure." Putting quickly all my things together which are lying all around the place.
How come I have so much stuff. It seems it is taking ages to get everything together. Done, at last. So who is this?
A guy in his mid 40 I think. He smiles at me and asks where am I heading?
"To Kirkclady. It `s just couple of stops from here. I think will take just under an hour. "
"Aright. Well ye...I am...."
From now on. I heard his whole life story. He was in Dundee to visit his family. He is Scottish, but lives down in England, near London. You better don't get this part wrong...He is Scottish, NOT English.
He has his own company. Doing catering services. He is a busy man as he said. He listed lots of famous people he has met thanks to his company. (who I have never heard of, but i think it is cause they are local British stars who I don't really know.)
"The stars are just like me and you. Just normal people. I have MET them. I know some people think they are something big or ...you know...like STARS. But they are actually not. I KNOW"
We had this conversation on for a while. He seemed quite proud. It was nice to hear him talking with such a enthusiasm.
The conversation carried on on advertisements.
He have played in one of them. It was for German rail service company. I got to see the video, as he had it with him in his laptop. Interesting, but I didn't really recognise him, as there was lots of people. In the video they all had to dance together, which seemed quite complicated. At the same time it seemed to be lots of fun. Amazing....
I mean to make all these random people to work together. Talent!
Rest of the journey he kept talking about the feeling what he had by doing this and also about famous people he admires. He seemed very sincere in everything he said.
But I didn't understand was it just a topic to talk about or he tried to impress me...
I mean not specifically me, ME could been anyone else. Just impress someone?
"next stop Kirkcaldy" "Its me. Thanks. Have a safe journey. "
"You as well. Was very nice to meet you. See you later!"
We sounded like friends...
And I never got his name......
