Why did I come home??
... for passengers to return to their cars. As usual the call came for all drivers with cars on car deck 3 to proceed to their cars, anyone on car deck 4 please wait for further announcements and so I waited. Time went on and on and finally out came the announcement for car deck 4 drivers to proceed to their cars.
