Not strictly travel, but couldn't find anywhere better. No, I guess it is travel; whatever, please advise:
I'm taking DD to see Taylor Swift next month on a Sunday evening and need to have her back the far end of the M4 for school the next morning. So staying in London isn't an option. And rather than risk missing the last train from Paddington if we don't get out of the screaming O2 scrum quickly enough, so I'm proposing to drive and tube it.
But how far into that London to drive and where to park? Getting there on the Sunday afternoon isn't the worry, it's being able to do the getting out of town bit as smoothly as poss, so we can hit the motorway and she can start catching some zzzzs as soon as humanly possible.
I left London a fair few years ago, so I forget what late Sunday tubes and roads are like. Could we risk parking in say Hammersmith or Shepherds Bush and travel back on Jubilee & Central Lines and then peg it out the A4? Or is that being too much of a wuss? Should we drive and park closer in? And just use the Jubilee? Or even drive all the way to Greenwich on the basis that at 11pm on a Sunday evening it should be a breeze to get back to Chiswick and the motorway?
I welcome your metropolitan nous, TIA,
Bear
