Default Whoops!

I can't have any brains then, the last time I went to Heathrow I took a

one of the few occasions it worked eh?


Well its a good thing you didn't take it the other day when it was
terminating at northfields. Again. Quite what LUL expect passengers to
do when kicked out 8 miles from the airport in the middle of a suburb
with a load of luggage is anyones guess. Not that I suspect they give
a toss in the first place.

Of course, your criticisms apply to St. Pancras International, too -
would you recommend I get a cab there? Was the person who built the
Thameslink box just wasting concrete?


IMO yes , but for another reason - KX thameslink used to be a
convenient interchange with the tube. Not any more. Now for the sake
of the small number of people who'll travel down from luton or bedford
to get the eurostar , thousands of rush hour commuters are now faced
with a 400 metre hike. Genius.
