I have published two volumes of commuter observations, drawing on my life as a commuter between Cambridge and London.
Each story was original published by Cambridge News as a satirical weekly report by 'The Commuter'
Railway Lines - train tales from a long-suffering commuter: Volume One
Based on more than twenty year's worth of commuter journeys from East Anglia to London, this is the first volume of twenty humorous observations on train travel and railroad travellers.
These satirical sketches are borne mainly out of frustration with railway travel but also a fascination with seemingly limitless English eccentricity.
Railway officialdom, passengers and unexpected situations are described in a witty, pithy fashion, including ludicrous questions asked at the ticket office, the commuter who insisted on setting up a mobile office environment, inappropriate clothing in hot weather and the unexpected eating habits of a bearded explorer.
This title is published in Kindle format and available in all amazon stores. Just search for this title or Mark Rasdall in any amazon store and it will appear. You can download the digital version to a Kindle or Kindle app on PC, iPad, iPhone and other devices.
