First day of lectures - NOT!

Euston Square Tube Station

Well thanks to the London Tube strike I could not go to my lecture. It is 2 miles from the rail station to my University and even using the buses (which would be overburdened because of the lack of the tube system) I would have had to leave my lecture an hour early to get to my return train trip home.

I decided it was not worth possibly missing my train and stayed home. I purchase my tickets a week in advance so a return ticket costs me £8.00 but I have to leave at specific times (off peak). If I miss my train it will cost me £28.00 for a ticket on the day. Not worth it.

I have one 3 hour lecture on Mondays and Tuesdays. Wednesdays I have a one hour lecture in the morning and a 3 hour lecture in the evening and a one hour lecture on Fridays.
