Once I was traveling on a  29  to London. I was in a section for four people and there was a table between us. The man on the opposite side to me had his briefcase on the table. There was no  30 on my side of the table at all. I was made rather  31 . I thought he thought that he owned the  32  table. I took various papers out of my bag and put them on  33 ! When I did this he stiffened and his eyes nearly popped out of his head. I had  34  his space ! A few minutes later I took my papers off his case in order to read them. He  35 moved his case to his side of the table. ( Of course , it is possible that he just wanted to be helpful to me !
