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"?


Ha ha, yes, that's the one. In fact we might as well use the
contraction for the new name of the station, and we can rebrand the
area at the same time. It'll become London's hottest new district,
replete with great transport links including a once weekly bus to the
mysterious lands of west London - though you'll have to stay there all
week until you can catch one the other way - that's as long as you've
avoided falling off the edge of the world of course.
