The Circle obviously uses the least, with no increase in peak

Ha! utl awaits, with baited breath, the success or otherwise of the
Teacup! (Should there perhaps be a tea party on-board when it starts?
Or might Boris come down hard on that increasingly downtrodden

Off at a tangent in every sense, maybe the District line should be
renamed the Saucer line?
