I hope that we both got it right, and that it was an outrageous spoof, or we’ll both have egg on our faces.

Life isn't a series of binary choices between two extremes.

There is a time and a place for reporting inappropriate behaviour (esp criminal offences).

The idea that a person is a "snitch" for doing so will quickly be forgotten should you happen to be the injured party, one suspects. Ie if someone burgled your house, and took something irreplaceable... if someone knew who did it you'd probably want them to go to the authorities.

Unless you're an anarchist, which given your earlier comments does seem quite likely.

What FoxEye said.
“Snitch” cracks me up, do those who use it read old American comic books?

I don’t really understand why you’re not allowed to eat/drink on a train - seems very weird - but mind your own damn business! :p

I completely see why people aren't allowed to eat/drink on the train.

Would you like it if you got on the train, sat down & the seat was covered with crap from the last person who sat there? Or the seat being wet because they've spilt their drink, Or it is sticky because they've dropped their sweets on the chair.

I could go on, But the rule seems sensible to me.

Can't speak for the whole of Britain, but in Essex we can eat and drink on National rail service trains. Greater Anglia trains will often have a bar area serving food and drinks, including alcohol

I think that’s a different ball game Vincent, I’m assuming that you mean buying something to eat/drink on board, from a sales counter on the train, or as you say, going to a bar, dining coach.
What gives me the zig, granted I rarely ride the train, is people getting on with smelly egg sandwiches, or kebabs that are leaking bits of lettuce and meat on the floor or seats.

Seems sensible to me too, Matteysan, but I fear that we may be in the minority, as ever, scofflaws win.
