Actually, just had a thought - in a sense there will be a TfL service on
Christmas day, that of the Cycle Hire scheme which I imagine will be
operating. However as 'casual access' has not yet been implemented (that's
planned for sometime in the new year I think), anyone wanting to use it
would need to be a member and be in possession of a key.


TfL are currently claiming that casual users access will be available
before Christmas (see the notes at the bottom of this press release from
Wednesday: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/corporate/medi...tre/17339.aspx
). The docking stations were unavailable on Sunday evening/night due
to a software update which might be linked to getting them ready for
casual users.
