Tubes of Delight

The London Underground, locally referred to as The Tube, celebrated its 150th birthday last week how amazing is that?!  Having survived two World Wars and attacks from the IRA and other terrorists it is a testament to the Keep Calm and Carry On slogan.

Spendthrift

Westminster Council in the City of London has been reported to have spent nearly £500,000 on signage and employment despite a judicial ruling postponing the introduction of the impending evening and weekend parking charges in the borough. Is this bad financial management or not?

Parking Con

I have recently decided that parking in London is a con. It is a legitimate way for local councils to fleece its community with unreasonable parking charges, ambiguous rules, limited parking bays and increasingly more double yellow lines.
