I was reading a news article today about trucker strikes in Spain, and at the very bottom of the article it mentioned that workers of the French rail company SNCF are also striking.
The very moment I read 'SNCF', my brain played back their station chime. We heard the chime so many times on our European tour that it drove me mad. I remember thinking "if I hear that chime one more time, I'm going to kill someone!!"
But today when I "heard" the chime, I felt nostalgic about it! I hadn't thought about it since we got back, until today... So I looked it up and found it here. Listening to this mp3 really takes me back, it was pretty crazy hearing announcements all the time and having no clue what was being said.
I also found this song which is a remix of the chime... kinda cool.

Yeah, I can totally see how that would drive somebody crazy..
I really really like the remixed version though...
Very well done indeed ;)
