who wants to take the tube to Stratford though ?
There was already a bigish staion there tbh, although I dont actually know what they have improved/modified tbh.

Have a look at this official web site Albs, with both domestic and international rail links improved:

Stratford is a pimple on the arsehole of the world. Drive up the Romford road and you get to Forest Gate (luvverly) then Ilford, Seven Kings, all classy places

Demolished a leisure centre that was a bit dated and tatty but fit for purpose and built one that's not tatty yet but totally unfit for purpose?

Or head in the other direction and nip in the Blind Beggar for a pint of pigs ear and a large pimple and blotch, and talk about the good old days when Ronnie Kray would nip in  for a quick half and shoot someone through the eye while he was there.
Then have an uplifting chat about how the lovely new muslim centre and mosque across the road is the biggest one in europe.

Used to go past on the No 25 bus every day, on my way to catch the tube to Chelsea Harbour.

I know. I used to live in Chelsea Harbour when I was Michael Caine.

Aah but that fits well with the present day criteria used when planning many things - as long as it looks the part and has provided profit for those who conceived and implemented the concept it doesn't have to be particularly relevant, efficient or indeed necessary to the (in this case)  infrastructure of the locale.

Still, our political masters have assured us that the vast sums spent developing this effort will be of great benefit to the country, our standing in the world and those fortunate numbers living in the areas redeveloped by the Herculean effort to display Britain at her best.

What a load of shite.  [smiley=thumbdown.gif] [smiley=thumbdown.gif]

Zulu, you're missing the point. Think how many silly hats we're going to be able to sell to the tourists...

Shame we import all our silly hats these days.

I think I will boycott 2012.

For those of us that live outside of some grotty part of London (and Weymouth), it offers sweet FA, except higher taxes.
