Went to a business meeting with an ueber-cool digital creative/advertising agency today.  Paddington to Farringdon is just five stops, and given London traffic ought to be a no-brainer.  However, the advertised 13-minute journey in fact took 18 minutes (close to half as long again as the journey should have taken), costing TfL another £12.50.

As an added bonus, this delay appeared to be caused by the train stopping in the middle of tunnels for no apparent reason.  Oh, and with the lights in the carriage failing regularly too.  What is that?

Whatever, the long and short of it is that I'm now just one square away from my very first Tube Bingo!  Keep your fingers crossed for the trip home tonight...
