      Since when has the tube ever been peaceful? Many sections are so loud it’s practically deafening.

        I very much prefer that to people doing all their social interactions on public transport so they don’t have to call these people while at home.

    Lack off mobile coverage was a huge shock to me when visiting London for work about a decade ago, this happened in that golden window when EU shutdown roaming fees and before Brexit.

    So I would blast mobile data all day, and just grind to a halt in the tube.
