Freedom without Socialism is privilege and injustice. Socialism without freedom is slavery and brutality.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1136.jpg



Quote: fc baldy "Am in London next w-end and going on the Harry potter studio tour,we are stating on liverpool street and have to get to Euston to get to watford junction....is this a easy trip to make.'"

There's a photo opportunity for folks such as you, a luggage trolley going through the wall, labelled platform 9 3/4, right at the far end of the new concourse at Kings Cross.
Very handy for the Parcels Office pub too.

[quote="Frank Zappa":1sacjrvf]Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.[/quote:1sacjrvf] [quote="The_Enforcer":1sacjrvf]Most idiotic post ever goes to Grimmy..... The way to restart should be an arm wrestle between a designated player from each side.[/quote:1sacjrvf]:



Quote: Horatio Yed "Tube maps can be misleading if you were in Oxford st and you wanted to go to Bayswater you go central line to nott hill gate the c&d line to bayswater on the map. But i'd get off at Queensway and cross the road outside. The app tells you, the paper map doesn't, for the layman the app is better.'"

After reading this, I downloaded the London Transport Planner app (I assume that's the one you're talking about?) ahead of the cup final. It seems to disagree with google maps

For example, going from Osterley Park Hotel (TW7 5NA) to Wembley Stadium at 11am.

1 hour 16 mins journey according to rlgoogle mapsrl - H91 bus to Gunnersbury, train to Wembley Central (change at Wilsden Junction). It then says to get a bus to the stadium but I'm guessing it's walking distance.

According to the app it takes 1 hour 34mins - Walk to Syon Rail Station, train to Wembley Park (changing at Vauxhall Underground then Green Park then Finchley)

I'm not sure which to trust now. Is this because the app knows about upcoming engineering works, or does it not have as much information at its disposal as google? eusa_think.gif

Guessing something being walking distance when the directions are telling you to catch a bus COULD be a big mistake.

Personally because it's a Cup Final at Wembley I'd forget about using the bus and just rely on the tube.

For those who helped me with the congestion charge thing, I still have not received anything from TfL so fingers crossed I'm in the clear now and I was told I would hear within seven days. icon_biggrin.gif
