Vaguely wondering why muggles didn't lean on that particular wall, he came to the conclusion that there must some kind of spell that told them not to.

As usual Nell was on her own though her grandpa had seen fit to at least say goodbye to her from the door. No doubt he had already disapparated back home and was working on the bust that was his latest project. Deftly she manuevered her cart around a group of muggles who were completely oblivious of her. Shaking her head she came upon the wall between platforms 9 and 10.

A smile leapt to her lips as she recognized a figure leaning on the wall across from the entrance to Platform 9 3/4. "Don't tell me you've been waiting here this entire time for me?" She teased. "Or are we contemplating the wall?"
OI! He was running he'd just gotten off the train from Scotland and had been worried he'd not make it in time. It would have been so much easier to just apparate but he had all his luggage and the last time he'd gone and sent his items ahead of him they'd ended up in the pond in the park instead of the Leaky... He was still mad about that, he'd searched all of London trying to find them!

His cart was loaded with his trunk and his owl cage holding his owl inside, and his jumper lay on top of it all. Glancing at the clock above the entrance he relaxed seeing he had almost a half an hour. Leaning against his cart he caught his breath. He'd been afraid he'd miss it!

MERLIIINNN THUD

Yep he'd forgotten to set the brake and now he was laying flat on his back.
