I don't think we did there were some vary diverse routes and the winning time was getting on for 4 hours from memory. I teamed up with the BERC and as it was such a lovely day we decided to spend most of it cruising around on buses rather than visiting the stations in a hurry :lol:

By the sounds of your fans regarding your performances lately and the continuing unrest with the board, you're the ones that need the pity ;)

My story of the day we met at Poplar and teamed up with James (Uefacup81) seeing the stations come out we opted for southbound dlr seeing that there was an 8 min wait at Canary wharf we went to look at taking out North greenwich went all round the houses lost down a maze of back streets but no time lost and got back on the Lewisham bound dlr.Returning 1 min was nice and took out North greenwich on the way back decided not on the run between Southwark and lambeth North and double backed at Waterloo where Al was on the Platform.

E&C reasonable change we decided to do South Wimbledon - Wimbledon to get to e putney coming out of the station a nice bus was waiting to turn right 131 i think so we got that direct.

Edgware Road we switched between the 2 branches easily and at paddington we walked down to lancaster gate despite me not doing this one for a while we only took 1 wrong turn probably the exit we took i suppose.

We decided to head up to West Hampstead and had a 9 min wait for an overground so we took the chance for a bit to eat me 4 crossants very tasty.getting out at Caledonian Road & Barnsbury and a walk down to Caledonian Road for a Holloway road double back down to Covent Garden we decided to double back to Holborn and take Central towards bank for a run through to Monument looking at the timings for a Tower Hill train we were hoping for just under 4 hours and we did.

Surprised not to come last as we were really not running fast at all.Darts went well the 1st score by me 100 then the standard went downhill until Peter managed to bag some form mine dipped then came back to me with an impressive 53 out and several other good double outs.Leaving Soupie and kevin behind we played 5 games before we left with me getting a 20 and 2 out and winning 4 of those 5 games in total.

Walking down to Bank to connect with a Central/Picc to Osterley Steeevoo decided to offer Sara a piggy back big mistake and sara head cracked back on the Pavement and her eyes rolled back into her head a Policeman pulled up and we called an ambulance.

Where Sara quite agitated obviously wouldnt let them put her in a neck brace to support her head and in Royal London Hospital Whitechapel still cause quite a ruckus in resus about being restrained i had to wait over an hour outside before i was allowed in eventually got to a cubicle where at 06.00am transfered up to a ward aw4 i had about 45m sleep that night and was quite exhausted.Left sara sleeping and recovering and managed to get to my car parked in osterley before anybody decided to clamp it got back but couldnt do any tube riding as had to find a parking space which is hard to do in central london at 2.30pm i was allowed on the ward and soon after sara dischardged herself with a slight Heamatoma and a Fractured Skull it teach her not to piss around next time she says.
