Having recently experienced the delights of having to shell out over £5
PER
ITEM in the snazzy new(ish) left luggage "Facility" in Liverpool St I am
keen to learn if any of the Old style (ie cheap) traditional left-luggage
lockers are still available in the London area.
It appears to me that Liverpool St is a franchised operation and places
much
emphasis on Security as a raison d`etre for its existence.
What a pity that this "Security" stuff is such an easy and glib reason to
give for plain old profiteering..

I'm inclined to agree: in this brave new world, anything can be "justified"
if you say that's it's either "for security reasons" or "for health and
safety reasons" :-(
