Useless London trains
Typical London trains, the moment there's a slight change in weather, everything grinds to a halt! I should'be know, the BBC news this morning said that there were problems in Norwood Junction (which isn't even on my way to work), which is an euphemism for problems in the entire South East area. I was on my usual train this morning, the 9:06 (which was late, as usual, by a few minutes) and guess what time I got into London Bridge? A whole HOUR! It was stupid, we had gone through New Cross Gate as usual and was on the final stretch into London Bridge, when we were stopped in traffic. For ages. And ages. And ages. It was ridiculous. So we limped into London Bridge (it looked like they had packed all the trains nose to tail on all the platforms, as if they were stocking for winter or something, unusual cos there is only supposed to be one train per platform) at around 10am, which coincidentally was the time I was supposed to be in work. Bastards!
As for going home, no better. Train into Charing Cross was late (the 18:23), apparenly due to "signalling problems in the Lewisham area". Of course it meant that I got into London Bridge late for my usual 18:36 train (this two-stop trip from Charing Cross was bad, I had some bitch's bag on my feet and her in my face) so I missed it. Bollocks!
