Seven nuns at seven sisters!!!!!
Seven nuns have been pictured at Seven Sisters station in London by a passing commuter.
Ben Patey, 33, was on a train when he saw the real-life seven sisters waiting on the platform.
He took the photo on his way home, telling the Express: "I had to do a double-take. It was one of those strange but amusing moments."
The Tube and overground station, near Tottenham, is thought to be named after a circle of Elm trees....

There may be eight but definitely not nine. The "ninth" is actually a man, definitely not a nun, but can only be seen in the first picture not the twitter images. Great picture though. :)

There are 8, there is one sat down behind the one stood up, you can see her feet and head scarf, the one on the right is definitely not a Nun uness they have relaxed their admission policies and are now taking in blokes with beards.

Still a very amusing picture.

Is it a man dressed as a nun?

No it's a guy in ordinary clothes.

The ninth nun stuff came from a cropped version of the image where you could only see a hand and a leg.

Has there ever been a punch up on the platforms at Battle?

You should've seen the terrible things that used to occur after the takeaway kicked out at Chipping Sodbury station in the 50s.

Last time I was there (2011) there was a guy in the car park on the phone with someone who probably wasn't his mate anymore, after a couple of minutes of him shouting into the phone he uttered the following;

"Look mate, I'm sorry I slept with your girlfriend"

He was in the middle of the car park, but judging by the reactions half the platform heard that bit clearly :lol:
