Nah, that's for a different thread in a different forum. But as a
clue, have a look at St George's Hill near Cobham and consider its
history and current accessibility.

Bitter and enraged about what? I haven't used the bakerloo line in about
5 years and don't live anywhere near notting hill. I just find the
hypocracy of TfL and the indifference to its main customers sticks in the
throat somewhat.

You're right - the Bakerloo line should definitely be shut on the day
when the largest street carnival in Europe happens, regardless of the
fact it skirts and hence serves the area.

In fact, we might as well ban the carnival, that's surely the easiest
course of action, I can't see any possible problems with doing that.

When are you running for Mayor?

Bizarre innit. An event that gives kids something to do and look
forward to for weeks, getting their costumes ready etc, instead of
getting into drugs, crime or whatever else, and the dinosaurs are
always trying to ban it.

If I was going, I would probably get a 18 bus.

I would have taken a bicycle, with a snooker rest taped to the front to
support a MASSIVE DOOBIE.

All very well, but I'd be a bit worried about where it might end up if
I ran into an unpredictable reveller.

Point. The solution is clearly a tandem, with the rest resting on the
captain's lid. "The stoker is the smoker", as my cycling proficiency
teacher used to say.
