Dear Jubilee Line,

I don't mind you having breakdowns on the service (well, obviously I do mind, but I accept it as a travelling hazard). But what does annoy me is when you don't have the usual frequency of trains running and still describe your service as 'good'. If your service was 'good', you'd have the usual trains every ninety seconds or so, rather than with a seven or eight minute gap as today. And to describe the next train as being four minutes away from the station for about five minutes? Why don't you admit it's nine minutes away?

Yours,
A Passenger,
This morning.

Now I've joined the commuting class I'm really not looking forward to going to work in the summer heat. Underground Cooling seems to concentrate on what can be done to cool the London Underground down, whereas I'll need suggestions on a more individual level. [via Going Underground]

Evening kids. I've spent the weekend with my parents, celebrating my Mum's fifty-sixth birthday. We all dressed up smartly and had a family portrait taken on Friday. And you know, after all that, my soul does feel a little smaller.

Anyway, the Tube Zone One walking map that shows the walking distance between tube stations, from The Shortwalk Blog, via Going Underground.
