As we settled in with our papers, magazines and coffees, I watched fellow passengers walking along the platform and found myself wondering why people insist on travelling with those inflatable neck doughnuts fully inflated? Isn’t the point that you pack them in your luggage and then inflate them rather than tethering them to your rolling backpack? Mom was more baffled by the pillow people who were shuffling along a carriage with their enormous pillows sagging over their luggage. “Why do you need to travel with a massive pillow?” she asked. Do people travel with pillows because they have allergies or because they have poor sleep habits? How many pillowcases do they travel with? Do they feel a certain kinship with other pillow folk?
