Feet on Seats

I’ve been into London today on the train.   I was going to quite a posh lunch, so was dressed up for the occasion, and, as it was summer, in light colours.

 First of all, of course, the trains get hot and sweaty.   Even if they have air-conditioning it is off when they are stationary.   So that takes the edge off the posh outfit a bit.

 But the real killer is feet on seats.  Why do men   -  and sorry boys but it nearly always is men  -  feel the need to put their dirty boots and shoes up on the seat opposite.   Then, later, when women sit down they are likely to end up with their light coloured skirts covered in a great dirty boot print!
