I think you've convinced me to go for the bus. The bus is also
cheaper, of course (I'll probably be using Oyster PAYG). ;-)

Worked like a dream. I gave myself plenty of time to get the 14 bus 05:03
departure from Putney Station, so much so that I actually caught the N10
04:50 departure. This had the advantage of avoiding a walk from Warren St
to Euston and delivered me to an almost deserted Euston at 05:30, just in
time for the 06:20's platform to be announced.

An interesting tour of West London haunts I've not seen for decades. The
N10 does take a bit of a Cooks' tour, mind. The main cause of delay at the
time of morning seems to be traffic lights, and it isn't just cyclists who
jump red lights then, I see.

I didn't realise they had cleared away all the kiosks on the Euston
concourse!
