"Again wanted to make a complaint about customers less than a metre behind you in the queue, monitoring and replicating your actions by moving seats as you do and starring at you constantly and drunk people trying to bully you into talking to them. One night, 2 seemingly drug addicts try to intimidate me by invading my space and 1 made a threat that if I had a 'buddy' I would be mugged off, all happening 10 metres away from costa.Also, there were 2 tanned women in glasses and they were standing literally less than a metre away from my backside in the queue.There was also a pale woman with bright green eyes and grey hair who stood less than a metre away from me in the queue as well.To add, when I was 20 metres away from the bus station, there was a girl with red hair shouting in an antisocial manner towards me from the top of the stairs.It looked like she was with a group of suspicious looking people,more like a gang trying to intimidate people around them."
