i don't think i've mentioned before that i, along with a lot of people including mr.bofwen, got stranded god-knows-where on our way back from edinburgh to london last winter holiday.
kononnye wanted to try something new, and so i bought two tickets for ScotRail's Caledonian Sleeper train. it's an overnight train and the tickets were so bloody expensive!i don't feel like the bank account wasn't happy of spending that much money for the sleeping berths, thus we settled down for the seated sleeper ticket. 7-ish hours sleeping in a seating position doesn't sound comfortable to me but *big sigh* ...at least i've got him with me!
... and when we were already all prepared for the shivering-in-the-sleep business, we received the good news from the worker. we were upgraded to the sleeping berths!!!!! woohoooo! *chicken dance*
as soon as the train left edinburgh waverley, we hit the pillow and zzzzzzzzzz....
until at some point, i thought the journey was too comfortable; being so smooth- no humpy bumpy at all! mr.bofwen was like, "giler hebat suspension train ni."
*cough*
apparently the train wasn't moving at all, that's why lah i can't feel anything!!!
basically there weren't enough power or some shit that the train stopped working. i tried using the google map to locate myself but takde signal please? grrrrrrrrr. and it was oh-so-freaking-cold!!!! radiator wasn't working during this minus degree celcius- i thought i'd die in the cold. nak menangis please sebab sejuk!
to cut long story short, we were trapped in the train for an extra 5 hours. arrived in london around noon, feeling famished. and all we got was this-
a cup of hot tea and 2 pieces of scottish shortbread. right.
so i've filed a complaint and oh boy, ScotRail has the most efficient customer service ever! *thumbs up* they contacted me 2 weeks after the incident, promised me a reasonable amount of compensation as long as i can provide the tickets for my journey as a proof.
guess what arrived in the post today?
that's right! my Rail Travel Vouchers worth of GBP95.00!!!!!
girls, ape lagi! travel jom. whaaaaat plane? train is the in-thing at the moment ohkay; although i think i did promised myself that that was definitely my last train ride.
if the next train ride got problem again, i should consider mandi bunga to buang all the bad luck wei!!!! +__+'
