Pains on Trains is a wonderfully funny, relentlessly satirical, laugh–out–loud read aimed at giving long–suffering commuters everywhere a weapon to fight back with. Its the perfect antidote for nightmarish travelling companions everywhere!

Each character within the book is illustrated by a hilarious cartoon caricature as well as a 'pain spotting' description which covers:

• General characteristics, which will describe the 'pain'


• Annoyance value, which rates the 'pain' from 1 (limited annoyance) to 10 (extreme annoyance)


• Rarity, which rates the pain from 1 (exceptionally rare) to 10 (very common)


• Seasonal variations, which identifies any seasonal changes to the pain and their severity/rarity


• Avoidance/revenge strategies

Pains on Trains is the perfect way to take the tedium out of commuting, guaranteed to become as indispensable to the seasoned traveller as the blow–up pillow or water sterilising tablets.
