Weird stuff


Agreed that after all this publicity I can well see a bunch of awkward-
squad bods turning up next Tuesday to ride on it!


I hope the gawkers on Tuesday 13th don't ruin it for people like me who
may go later in the year as a matter of curiosity! I didn't want to
travel all the way out to Ealing, and I was hoping to get on at
Kensington, but I may get on at Clapham and jump off at a set of
lights.


Interesting that you place Wandsworth Road station in Clapham - to me
it's in a kind of hinterland between Clapham, Battersea, Stockwell and
South Lambeth. We had a discussion about it a while ago


Batterclapstock!


How could I forget! But no South Lambeth in there - Lambatterclapstock
or even Slambatterclapstock - though perhaps South Lambeth starts far
enough up the road for any further modifications to /mangling of your
original to be unnecessary...-


Pronounced "Slaahk"?
