No doubt, had I waited 15 minutes for a central line

, or even spent only 80p on
a 607 from Ealing to Shepherd's Bush and walked five mins to WC.

Wasn't sure how long that would take, last time I did it is was full of
the usual scum that infest busses, a fight broke out, and it took over
half an hour

Ken didn't steal your 80p, you simply didn't use the rail replacement
bus
service!

He promised that tickets were valid on local busses.
