Originally from the North, I've always been a bit wary of standing to close to the edge when traveLling on the Tube in London. I wasn't expecting him to be considering suicide with laptop in hand and was then shocked to read what happened by accident once he changed his mind. Only after reading others' comments did I realise that your choice of body part (hand) suggests something sinister. My own fear of accidents there caused me to totally disregard the hints you gave.DancingInTheRainnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4269818854687226287.post-37822541328744642452012-06-18T21:00:28.219+01:002012-06-18T21:00:28.219+01:00Wow, didn't see that coming with the seemingly...Wow, didn't see that coming with the seemingly everyday descriptions at the beginning.
