The Mole

PS this real geographical tube map

came about to avoid common wasts of time like travelling from Bank Station to Mansion House getting the Central Line train to Liverpool Street, changing to the Circle Line and going another five stops to Mansion House and then getting out 200 yards down the street from you started. Plus the more common thing of getting on at Covent Garden or Piccadilly Circus and travelling one stop to Leicester Square - when it's quicker to walk. smiley - winkeye

I have one of these old maps hanging on my wall; I'll post a pointer to it as requested.
