Nice commute Tunnie, certainly a very dynamic cityscape. Do they have to go through the safety briefing at each stop?

Cool commute Tunnie certainly beats playing human sardines on the tube, or being stuck in traffic. You should take a fishing rod with you one time and catch your tea on the way home :y

London can be the best place in the world to live/work. Like all big cities, it can also be the worst.

You'll get punched taking pictures of people on the tube  ;D

Love London, we were there the other week to see Prince at the O2, fantastic weather (bizarrely!) and was just nice to wander round and do nothing  :)

.....was nice to come home though  ;)

Some nice scenery there... still prefer my method of commuting which involves nothing more than some clothes and a pair of trainers ;)
