As suddenly as it all started the two Chinese girls go silent, lost in some magazine or entranced by their music on the ipod they share, I know not which as their table is littered with the remnants of a long train journey. In the brief silence offered by the lack of Chinese speak, another conversation filters through. ‘If you haven’t a valid ticket you will have to pay again’ ‘I have this [...]
