Severe delays.

When I am all growed up I am going to be PRIME MINISTER. And then I shall put everything right for everybody and be nice to all the other people in the world and make sure they all have nice places to live and lots of nice things to eat.

BUT FIRST I'M GOING TO SPEND EVERY FEKKING PENNY THE COUNTRY CAN AFFORD TO PUT THE FEKKING NORTHERN LINE RIGHT!

It's a while since I've heard it referred to as the Misery Line. So long that I thought the problems had gone away.

I got caught by the Northern and the Jubilee last night, working a double act. Over an hour and a half to get to my singing lesson at Canada Water. Sheesh.

When I lived in London, the Northern line was always the worst, and I see that rubbishy old London Transport (a misnomer if ever there was one) has done sod all to improve it. The uncaring blighters know that most Londoners, even if they own a car, will not drive into town because of congestion and high parking costs, so everyone has to use their aged tubes and slow buses. Their system is crumbling, their prices are too high and their employees are rude, and when I lived there it made no difference to the obstinate gits that the Evening Standard justifiably castigated them every chance it got.

Thank the Lord I live in a village and work in a town, not a city. I sympathise with you Londoners.
