I looked out of the window angry and by the time I’d calmed down and turned<br />

back Elly was asleep. I decided I’d get up and have a wonder around the train. I<br />

walked passed a few rowdy guys flagrantly drinking and stepped over a<br />

sleeping youth who looked like a stowaway. I found the toilet and was pleased<br />

with how large it was. I had a walk down a few more carriages looking for some<br />

form of food but couldn’t see anything so I turned back. I passed the ticket<br />

inspector who wished to check my ticket and we had a mangled discussion<br />

about me going back to my seat and whether it was possible to buy food on the<br />

train. I ended up back in my cabin foodless and bored.<br />

Elly woke up just as we were approaching Krakow and smiled at me.<br />

“Juz?” She asked and this was a kind of now/already word that seemed to be<br />

employed as often as moze and ch-e-ho.<br />

“Yes my dear. It went by in the blink of an eye didn’t it?” A very sleepy blink.<br />

We disembarked and a woman clad in bright red pants, stilettos and the same<br />

red overcoat came bounding over towards us. Well towards Elly. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

embraced and jabbered away in <strong>Polish</strong> as I politely waited to be introduced. I<br />

couldn’t help but notice the jealousy her ‘friend’ was oozing. Sure she was<br />

smiling like a dolly bird, looking at the stomach as if it was a crystal ball and<br />

honestly I think Elly felt the same when she observed her friends clothes. She<br />

was obviously doing well for herself and was dressed to impress.
