I got home quite late this evening for various TFL-being-useless-jobsworths reasons which also meant I got to ride on a lot more underground lines than usual. It's getting warmer in London (up to 26 tomorrow! I'm not sure whether to be scared or excited), so I've decided to bring you the current status of some of the tubes, in case you've got some whizzing around London to do, or are just bored.
District line: Tepid, with a nice cool breeze in carriages with open windows
Bakerloo line: Roughly as warm and sweaty as a rugby player's socks at half time
Overground: About the same as outside (warm enough), but rather airless
DLR: Crowded enough to get that centre-of-the-penguin-huddle warmth
Jubilee line: No idea, but I hope for the sake of the people trapped on it by today's power failure it wasn't too hot
I had quite a complicated journey! Also, on the train from Waterloo a very fat and apparently blind woman stepped on my foot. Luckily, I was wearing boots and have not had to have it amputated. I want to stay in bed tomorrow!
Speaking of which, goodnight!
the tube for me is always a sweaty mess!!
