UPDATE 08:30

Heading down to Wimbledon and have been acheiving "********" speeds (The missing word being that unmentionable person) They are ahead of scheudule. Must be due to the fact Andi only had 5 post challenge pints instead of the usual 7... :D

UPDATE 12:10 hrs

On the Bakerloo Line still behind schedule which means they may change ending, so could revert to the normal finishing station now........

I'm guessing they're going for the Epping finish then?

I think that was the original plan, they always had an option for it be T5. Looks like T5 is currently in the frame.....

UPDATE 12:50 hrs

In Andi's words they have lost more time due to bad trains and are just about on GWR pace...

I guess that their own schedule which they are down on is inside GWR

EDIT

I just spoke to Andi at 1300hrs they are in sunny West London :D

Well to be exact they are 25mins outside their schedule which was 25mins inside GWR so you do the maths :wink: It will be a T5 finish.......

They are probably just bluffing me to make sure I waste time and money going out to meet them later.......... :roll: Unless they reckon they can claw back 15 mins somehow......

They have just run To West Ruislip in a gut busting 5mins 20 secs and made a Central Line with 20 secs. to spare.... Looking like they are now clawing time back again....
