I don't know exactly, but I fear the worst -- this kind of thing has a tendancy to shut down services for days. In which case, I'm kind of screwed for tomorrow. ARGH!

Do you have any friends on that side of the city that you could stay with tonight, to make getting to the interview tomorrow quicker?

That's a good idea. My brother lives in Finsbury Park, which is closer...

You're more than welcome to stay with me, if that helps at all.

It's a pretty major incident, so I'd be very surprised if your interviewers weren't understanding about it and agreed to reschedule the interview. Call them and ask?

I think I probably will, this afternoon. Rahhh... I am all psyched up, and also have got tomorrow off work as holiday. RAHHH.

No reports of fatalities yet...

Do you think it would be worth calling them this afternoon? It's possible that the interviewer(s) will be as screwed as you! Maybe you could phrase it as wanting to confirm that the interviews will still go ahead, and if the answer's yes, perhaps then you could ask if it's possible to reschedule?

I don't know, but I can imagine that, if the tube is out of action, it will be totally mad at that time tomorrow.

Yeah, I'm going to ring them this afternoon and see what the state of play is.
