Re: Sunday Terrorgraph article 30/4 (NSW) - Classical Music on stations

One of the hitches with the southern line is that the stop at Junee is a
regular pick up for the lads released from
Junee Correctional Centre. They are released at Midnight and come straight
to the station with the blue plastic
bag fulla bits. Not hard to spot. Some sit like nice quite lads and enjoy
their freedom. Others hit the p**s for the
first time in three years and by Goulburn or Albury are being thoroughly
obnoxious. Man I hate that when I'm travelling
with my 7 year old son. At least in first class, whilst the "snobs" may not
talk to you it is also unlikely that the drunks
will abuse you. A big three cheers for those PSS who still have the guts to
turf em off into the waiting arms of the law
I reckon.
