I'm really sorry but I can't make tomorrow

Scoobydooooo · 09/08/2006 18:35

Does it have to be a week day ?

JoshuaandChloesmummy · 09/08/2006 18:35

Have you told people about this in other parts of mumsnet, just incase that they haven't come into this bit?

ZippiZapata · 09/08/2006 18:34

I expect the early time and the lack of time to get organised is the sticking point (apart from preserving anonymity and the cost)

ok so oxford circus to pimlico - THANKS - thought there might be an easier route.

central line and victoria line - GOTCHA

OP posts:
merrily · 09/08/2006 18:12

JARM - the easiest way from Liverpool St is to get the Central Line to Oxford Circus then change on to the Victoria Line to Pimlico.

Quootiepie · 09/08/2006 18:11

well, its not the tube really... its travelling alone in London tube or no tube lol

Quootiepie · 09/08/2006 18:10

oh, or I can go Bracknell - Waterloo -Vauxhall

merrily · 09/08/2006 18:09

I'm pretty sure there are loads of trains from Clapham Junction to Vauxhall, so no need to get on the tube at all!

merrily · 09/08/2006 18:08

Pimlico is nearer yes, but it would be quicker to walk from Vauxhall than get on the tube for just one stop. Just walk over Vauxhall Bridge, carry on up Vauxhall Bridge Road for a short way and Random House is on the right-hand side.
