We finished the Northern line yesterday - did Kentish Town to High Barnet. It was quite a nice walk and the sat nav took us through some nice places. We've now completed 9 lines out of 11 which is pretty good going, especially considering we only started five weeks ago! I'm back to work tomorrow though so the remaining 2 lines (the Central and the Piccadilly) are gonna have to wait, either until half term or we could start on some Saturdays.
It's been pretty fun doing the walks - obviously it's given us something to do over the summer but it's also been nice seeing all the different places (I've lost count how many London boroughs we've walked through) and seeing how different (or similar) some of the stations are. I think so far South Kenton is still the smallest we've seen but there might be some smaller ones on the two lines we have left.
I wish I'd thought of doing it right at the beginning of the seven and a bit weeks I've had off because we might have finished it if we had. It feels weird leaving it unfinished!
Also, apparently it took the BBC a year and a half to renew that "Not Going Out" show. I hope they don't take that long letting us know about "New Blood"!
