Four-minute delay on the tube from Paddington to Waterloo going home last night. Caused me to miss the fast connecting train home to Hersham. The train I did manage to get on was one minute late, though that was outside of TfL's network. Nonetheless, the overall delay to my journey caused by TfL's tardiness was 27 minutes, which equates to £67.50.
It looks like a glorious weekend and week coming up, so I'll leave you with some good news, for a change: TfL's rolling out some more air conditioning.

Fwah fwah fwah fwah fwah fwah
About yesterday: I forgot to add the two-minute penalty for my morning's journey into work owing to having to get off at Paddington instead of Edgware Road. That's £5. Yesterday evening, I was delayed by two minutes on the tube from Paddington to Waterloo, though it didn't affect the connecting train I took. That train, however, was also two minutes delayed for another £5. No explanations were given for any of this.
This morning, the train from Hersham ran to schedule, while the tube was three minutes late for £7.50. Some form of explanation was offered for this, but it was completely inaudible. Actually, it sounded sort of like the adults always do in any Peanuts cartoon.
Seven minutes and £17.50 in total.

Hello again!
Sort-of refreshed from two days off, despite the 5 a.m. start my son and daughter delivered to us this morning, and with some good news: both the train and the connecting tube into work this morning were on time.
Long may it continue.
Elsewhere, we read that TfL has launched a revamped web site. Indeed, I noticed something different about it when I logged in this morning, namely that the fonts were all messed up. Good work! Incidentally, I'm not just being rude here, it looked nothing like the picture shown on The Drum. It looked exactly the same, just that the fonts were all over the place.
Finally, if you commute to London from any of the stations between Liverpool Street and Enfield Town, Chingford, or Cheshunt via Seven Sisters, you might want to think about moving home before 2015, when TfL will take over these routes and screw them up.
