Everytime I attempt to use the bloody tube, its SNAFU, so end up walking (from Marlyebone to the city).  Good exercise though.

Here's a nice song about the underground:

Incidentally I regularly go from Paddington to Fechurch St and found that you can WALK along the embankment, and then tube from Bank to Paddington quicker than the circle line takes for the same journey.

WALK!

nothing wrong with the tube! just relax and its fine. I have been working in london for almost 18 months now

I get down to the platform, full train comes in, people sqeeeeze their way on.

Wait 2 trains, and its empty! Get a seat, with spares around you. Always go to the back of the platform.

I use the bakerloo, and its no issues really, only times its mega busy is when there are football riots games on
