I was on a train last night. Very decent young lad got on without a ticket so when the guard came round he politely offered to buy one on board. Guard very pleasantly gave him the spiel about buying the ticket before boarding to avoid penalty and then said : "how old are you?"
"16" he says. Full fare. Guard says that's adult fare.
I felt sorry for him because he'd been polite and honest.
