I dont have any idea about WTT for november but i suppose a good idea would be to have a starting and finishing point then work from that.

I must do this! I won't have school (yessss) but I have no clue what september onwards will hold for me, it's quite scary really.

I think a new PB should always be kept in mind when doing the FNC, otherwise it seems pointless. Chesham finish instead of Amersham maybe?

I haven't tried an Upminster start yet and fancy a crack at that

The problem with an Upminster start is where to stay as Barking & Hornchurch are the nearest places with a hotel.
When I did the 17.06 with an Upminster start I stayed at the travelodge in Barking. Catching the 05.25 train to Upminster Starting at 05.45 But this was before the problem of the Ken Oly trains. I do have a route But It would need an exhibition service for it to work.

Did Upminster work better with an ELL configuration? Because an Upminster start kinda leaves the jubilee extension isolated.
