"Witzend" Your story reminded me of something that happened about 20 years ago when I was travelling on the tube - not to me fortunately because I wouldn't have dealt with it in such a brave and effective way.

It was very crowded and the people standing in the space between the doors were crushed together. Then a girl said in a very loud voice "What the hell do you think you're doing?" I heard a mumbled male voice, and then the girl, again in a very loud voice "No, you weren't, you were trying to put your hand up my skirt". It was brilliant.
