Excuse me.
Yes.- Sorry to bother you, but have you got the time?
- Sure, I believe it is... twenty past seven.
- Hmmmm...
- I reckon!
- Is it just me? Or was the train supposed to be here three quarters of an hour ago?
- Yeah, nah. It's really bloody late.
- I've been checking my watch so many times.
- It made me wonder if it had stopped or something. But, I guess I'm not going crazy.
- The trains running on time is a bit hit-n-miss around here.
- True? I'm not very familiar with the train system here in Auckland.
- Right. It's kind of like this every other day.
- It's ridiculous.
- Really? Stink.
