Personal security, mobiles

[Jimmy Mac]

Good morning. I am just "putting this out there" and will not comment further.

I caught the train last night and was mildy irritated when the young woman next to me began a loud conversation on her mobile; but no big deal, c'est la vie. The carriage was full so I couldn't easily move away.

I tried to "tune her out" but couldn't concentrate properly on my paper because of her noise.

Even trying not to listen I heard:-

What stop she gets off the train (well before she gets off)

What she is doing today and who her meeting is with today and what the meeting is about

Her age

The names of three of her friends

Her route home from the station

That she has a rape alarm, and where she keeps it.

That she thinks she has been followed on her way home, several times.

Less tired, today, I wonder whether I should have said something to her.

Anyway, that's it-have a nice day all.

Did she mention her mum's maiden name?

A simple 'thanks for keeping me entertained during my journey home' would have sufficed.
