Ah, the wonderful Circle Line. All I ask is not to wait for twenty
minutes at Edgware Road for an inner Circle (yes, I know it would be
quicker just to go to Earl's Court and change, but I'm an optimist, and
expect one to turn up any minute).

I'm not surprised Essex to London Bridge is a horrible commute by rail.
After all, it does involve changing at Stratford, West Hampstead *and*
St Pancras at the moment (unless Crossrail got built without us noticing).

And the poor Jubilee Line. The extension just doesn't seem to have
agreed with it... let's hope the extra cars and signalling upgrade cure
that.
