Oh no, it's much easier! As a young adult, I lived in Paris before I
lived in London, and had enormous difficulty working out how the London
system worked, compared to the extraordinarily easy Paris system, which
labels by terminus. Doesn't help that I have enormous difficulty
knowing my left from my right, or my east from my west.... I can just
about manage north and south, but that's it!


I must say I've always wondered why the Circle Line isn't labelled as
"Circle Line Clockwise" and "Circle Line Anticlockwise", as working it
out with the "via" points can take some time if you're not too
familiar with it, whereas you can see clockwise/anticlockwise on the
Tube map very easily.
