oh I forgot to mention the firework display we were treated to on our way home from work yesterday. The 18:16 from kensington olympia literally caught fire whilst we lurched into clapham junction and many of the passengers were noticably shaken. In true public transport style though no one in charge took control or let anyone know what was happening – can you imagine a plane catching fire and the airport authorities just shrugging? I think not.
So today the trains were completely screwed – I mean really – it took me 2 hours to get from streatham common to kensington olympia via clapham junction.
Ken Livingstone had better improve public transport before he brings in his charging for cars in central london…
