would make getting back to Victoria after the Theatre a hell of a lot easier, never understood why they do not run through the night especially at the weekend.

its london, everything should be open all the time, convenience is king

The reason they do not run all night is because they need to clean the stations, the lines and do maintenance. That said a 24 hour train from Thursday to Sunday would be useful as hell.


As long as they are not bloody striking!!!!

That was announced ages ago Chich

Only going to be 5 lines initially on Thurs, Fri and Sat as far I know. Jubilee, Northern, Victoria, Central and part of the Piccadilly. No timeline has been created for when in 2015 it will begin.

Read £360m a year more into the economy, but what about the poor drivers ?? surely they will strike over this as they might actually have to work !!!

I suspect the PL are to blame:

rivers = spotted redshanks
streams = little ringed plovers

ok, who's the ornithologist and what's the entomology of those?

 

[jts1882]

Entomology is the study of insects, not birds. :-"

 

[Baleforce]

I actually meant etymology, i'd like to blame autocorrect but i expect i was just ****ed
