Oh, and while I'm having a rant, please let me point out to TFL/LU:

YOU DO NOT EVER RUN A 'GOOD' SERVICE.


- First, a 'good' service is one that runs reliably all day, week, month, not one that is temporarily not dysfunctional.

- Second, the whole system is sooooooo sllloooooooowwwww that even at best, 'normal' is the only justifiable description.

- Third, after I have fought through hordes of zombie financiers to enter a carriage and stood wedged with my nose in someone's armpit while stuck in tunnel approaching Bermondsey as the driver announces trains are 'backed up' all the way to Stratford, it is a bit frustrating to eventually exit at Canary Wharf and hear an announcement that this qualifies as a 'good' service.

- Fourth, even at the best of times it sounds incredibly smug, and winds up passengers, ahem, sorry, 'customers'.

Phew, rant over. I enjoyed that.
