| London Travel Advice (IMMEDIATE!)
Ok, as you schmucks may know, I'm going to London tomorrow to see Neil Young. I need some advice on getting to certain places though. First off, I arrive at 5pm in Victoria Coach Station. I have to get to the Hammersmith Apollo for 7pm. What's the best way to get there? Taxi (much will it cost?)? Underground (which route?). Now, after the gig, I'll be going to my cousin's flat which is South Wimbleton (precisely Dowman close). What's the best (safest, quickest, cheapest) way to get there?
Thanks. |

surely your cousin that lives in london and who your staying with can provide all this information, and probably more accurately than anyone here would. | |

The underground will be several degrees of magnitude worse than the worst hell would have to offer at that time.
Aside from that I have no more advice.

Just check the departure board when you get there. It probably changes from day to day anyway. | |

I moved a bit further out and it can be a hassle to get home now. I'll see what I can do.

Pound a drink offsets the air fare, I'm sure. | |

Victoria to Hammersmith on the district line should take about 15-20 minutes. The district line isn't anywhere near as busy as the rest of the lines even during rush hour. tfl.gov.uk is the best place for planning your journey in London. |
