I oversimplified (always dangerous when dealing with simple people). The
line radiates out from roughly the same point, but the station - as is
obvious to anyone who's been there - is further east.

And then what? You jump down a big vertical shaft to reach the tube
platforms?

When you mentioned INSERT-MIND-INPUT ... did they look at you like this?

Or a lift.

It seems that way, but then if you start at the waterloo & city line,
walk all the way to monument via the northern line/dlr, then take the
tube to cannon street, you are about 100yrds from where you started, so
I wasn't going to rely on the subterranean impression of distance.

Try doing it on the surface. It's obvious.

Will there be anything different to see? I take it the new St Pancras
station won't be open yet, but I want to go to Kentish Town anyway for
another reason, and am wondering if it will be worth postponing my trip
until 16 May, and whether there will be anything different to see if I
do?

PS

What you actually see is a lot of dimly lit concrete pillars (or are
they pilasters?) and dark openings giving the impression of a cave
system - complete with stalactites at one point! Not IMO worth a
special journey.

Or a lift what? Please, if you aren't going to quote, and it looks as
though you aren't, could you give us _some_ idea of what you are talking
about by putting your reply into some kind of context.

That was message 20. If you use google groups, and look at messages 19
and 18, it will make perfect sense

Neither platform is on the surface, and I am unable to fly over the
various obstructions, and nor do I have X ray eyes to see where beneath
my feet each platform begins/ends, so I don't see how that is possible.

Why on earth should I use Google groups when I have a perfectly good
off-line newsreader?
