Wrong Station

When Tom decided to go on a holiday to England, he wrote to a friend of his who was living in London and asked if he could meet him at the airport. The friend wrote back to say that he would be there. So Tom was rather surprised when he reached the airport to find that his friend had not turned up.  

He walked around for a short while and then, because he had a slight headache, went into the restaurant and had a cup of strong, black coffee. After that he felt much better. He bought a couple of magazines at the bookstall and went into the lounge to read them. He felt sure that his friend would come fairly soon, though he was beginning to get worried.

He had just started to read his magazine when his friend arrived, with a young lady. Tom’s friend apologised for being late and explained what had happened. Apparently he had arranged to meet the young lady at six o’clock, just outside the underground station not far from where he was living. The young lady, who had only travelled on the underground once before, had set out in good time but unfortunately she had got on a train going in the wrong direction. She travelled for several stops before she realized this, because the train was very crowded and she could not see the names of the stations. By the time she got to the right station, she was nearly three – quarters of an hour late. (after Donne Dyrne)
