Excellent way to pass time !
On the return journy, there was a girl sitting opposite. It was about 3 hour journey - for some time she listened to some music then worked on her laptop etc - then she got her bag out - and from that got out a very small scissors. I assumed it would be for the nails. But no. Like an average-local-25-something she had a funny hair style. She would examine a small bunch - single out a hair or two and snip the ends. SHe killed almost an hour and half in this activity (and I mine - watching her - in between my fits of sleep). A very interesting and novel way of passing time.
