Wow - thanks very much all for the speedy (and detailed) replies. Will
have a bit of luggage with me so was thinking taxi but someone had
suggested that this could cost as much as £20 for a 5 mile journey
(seems a bit much)

Bus therefore looks like the best bet - thanks once again for all the
help!


The other way is Piccadilly line from Heathrow to Kings Cross, then Northern
to Old Street. The cash single fare is GBP 4.00 which takes you all the way
in 65-70 minutes (the Heathrow Express is GBP 14.50 single from Heathrow to
Paddington, plus bus/cab fare)
