The chap in Hove may have looked smug - but not because he was successful. It became clear that a chap had got on the train and padlocked his fold-up bike to the bars near the train door. Trouble was (evidently) he hadn't got the key.
The guard kept trying to phone ahead for help and the poor cyclist moved further and further from his planned destination. When it got to Littlehampton it was due to turn round and head back after a short break... question was whether engineers, the British Transport Police, or the Fire Brigade could rescue the bike in time.

She's feeling fragile, but she's home and on the mend
