J'adore le metro français


The Parisian metro. I love it.

It is so good that there is no chance you would ever deign to make a dash for a closing door. If you were running late you might speed up your walking pace a little, but there is no need for undignified running when there will be another one along within an absolute maximum of 4 minutes. Fantastic! Even Lawson, 5 minutes from Redfern where all the trains stopped, would be entirely unacceptable here. My place is closer to the metro station than our place in Redfern, and even on major grève day, the metro came so much more regularly than anyone has ever seen in Sydney!


Comments:
I found exactly the same thing with the London underground, unfortunately they are not so chic in England...peak hour was actually dangerous on the tube as all the Londoners would race down the stairs so they didn't miss their train and we'd wander down (narrowly avoiding death by squish) and walk straight onto the next train (2 minutes later) which was completely empty!! Those crazy English!
