Default Heathrow on Boxing Day?

Is Cockfosters a dreadful idea? £1.00 to park, near M25 Jcn24 and
direct to Heathrow, albeit quite a long trip

Hmm... Boxing day. Dreadful idea - I'll be working lates that day
so you might never get there

Seriously, just over an hour to Heathrow; I can't see there being
too many problems parking and it's fairly handy for the M25. Do
they charge at CFS on Boxing day then?


Are you sure? I thought it was over an hour from King's Cross to Heathrow
last time I went there.


Well, OK, book is 1 hour 27 mins - not too bad if you say it quick
You'll be right that it's exactly an hour from KX as CFS to KX is about
27 mins.

I still find an hour can be an inadequate allowance when sitting on a
Piccadilly Line train at King's Cross. If it really matters I add ten
minutes.

Does anyone else find that riding from Arnos Grove to Barons Court leaves
them standing by the door trying to breathe?
