[set on a british inter-city train] a passenger gets a cappuccino, a cheese and tomato sandwich, a packet of crisps and a Kit Kat and hands over payment, saying: ”I’m sorry, I’ve only got a twenty-pound note.”

The buffet car steward replies: “Well, you’d better put the Kit Kat back then.”

The column also discusses ESPN’s “Free View Weekend”. I watched (some of) their coverage of the Milan Derby. An eventful and quite interesting game. I don’t understand why anyone would want to PAY FOR a subscription though… especially when they subject you to long (4+ minutes?) of ads in the breaks. Pay a subscription and still get bombarded with (stupid!) adverts – How is that supposed to appeal?
