        The bus arrives, Dolores on first.

        Pigtail smoker at the station. 'n Morgen. Morgan Shaved headed service at the cafe, is faster, than last week.

        The blond service woman at yormas is making her daily jokes with !mouotaehio, Hedgehog sits and looks. The longhaired black bagged girli  makes scraping noise as she drags a stool across the floor. There is the mosaic maker iv, up bright and early, in her working outfit. Jokes all round, humour .

        'Leave for the train as the small train from Rosenheim

- rolls in , seeming to puff and blow, almost, maybe because of its unusual diesel-engine noise...

        Down the stairs, along the corridor, up the stairs to the platform just as the train for Munich comes in.-

        Find a seat, see familiar faces, no knowing who they really are behind their books and knitting, mobile telephones, tablet computers, laptop computers, electronic books, newspapers.

        Some are just sleeping, the attendant passes by and he

- look at all The Tickets.

After the illuminated chemical plant has passed by the windows in a glare of high-wattage white light, the train moves into Moosbury station and stops. People come on board, reeking of perfume, aftershave, cigarette smoke, bags full of fruit, papers.

        All on their way to Facing, where the local train waits., ready to take people on the last part of their journey. Or the part before last. In the usually filthy littley station in Neufahm there will be a bus.The last half hour of public transport.

        Until this evening, just the mornings journey in reverse.

        The days work will be the usual mingling of incompetence and boredom.

        No great chances.to he missed...
