I heard that he's renaming all the exit signs as brexit.

From the picture it actually looks quite good. It is better than the current grey of the Jubilee Line.

I was quite excited when one of the candidates for mayor said they would
provide a subsidy for London Pride. It would have saved me a fortune.

There are times when I wish Usenet had the ability to give an up-vote.

Be very careful the "Bad Guy" hunter from Devon, david brooks,
may be on board.

Waitrose has announced that it will be the first supermarket to launch
on the TfL network by taking over a disused station on the Piccadilly
line.

The concourse at Down Street station will be redeveloped to create a
unique retail space for TfL customers.

Joking apart, I remember when there were shops (well, kiosks) on the
platform at several UndergrounD stations.

There still are - Embankment, Monument and Hammersmith come to mind
immediately.

The kiosks at Monument aren't behind the line, however, whereas the two
at Embankment on the District line are.

For the avoidance of doubt, I'm only interested in kiosks on platforms,
"airside" of the ticket barriers.

I remember that Cadbury had chocolate machines at most stations, though
they seem to have removed them about 10 years ago. Why was that?

Removed longer ago than that, I think.

Even when they worked, I suspect they probably vended more chocolate
bars to people with the necessary size of washers, rather than UK
coinage.
