What is the meaning of life came the echo from the confines of the coach’s luggage bin. Luggage bins have reasonably good acoustics so the words came through clearly. Ok from this there are 2 questions that come to mind. What was Paul doing in the luggage bin and what is the meaning of life?
Paul was covered in spilt tomato sauce and Meryl’s luggage had managed to spill onto him as he lay there in the luggage bin. Luckily his voice was heard within the coach over the dulcet tones of Ted Egan singing his famous and popular song loved by all Australians, “Sayonara Nakomura”. The coach captain stopped, and the luggage bin was opened by the gnarled yet tender hand of the coach captain.
So Paul what is the meaning of life the coach captain joked as they got back on the bus, for Paul it was back to the comfort of seat 2B.
