Default Doh - lack of Overground mentality

So going to Olympia yesterday from Dalston Junction I went to Highbury,
changed to Vic line, then at Kings X worked my round the circle to
High Street Ken, then bus to Olympia. Completely forgot that from
Highbury I could have got a direct train to Olympia.

Must do better, especially as TFL has just kindly emailed me with the
start of the service to Clapham J via Surrey Quays on 9 December.*

* I see they are promoting it as a way to get to Canary Wharf avoiding zone 1.

That's what I thought – suppose it's better at London Bridge. They can
also go to Shadwell though.
