It is somewhat an improvement on what was there an hour ago - Circle,
H&C, and District lines were all completely suspended.

And the LU status display on my Google home page has ceased functioning.
Obviously a widespread problem.

I gather a yougart (spelling police please) pot fell off a string
meaning communications weren't very easy down there!

Due to faulty communications equipment presumably.

Obviously no one in LUL has ever heard the phrase "backup system".
Pathetic.

Frankly , if you've got any brains you get a minicab to an airport.
Relying on public transport is as good as missing your flight. I can't
remember the last time I took the tube to heathrow or southern to
gatwick. Even if the mainline railways are running fine the tube will
always screw you over somehow preventing you from getting to victoria
or paddington.

I can't have any brains then, the last time I went to Heathrow I took a
suitcase, buggy and toddler on the Piccadilly Line. Lucky for me I got
one of the few occasions it worked eh?
Of course, your criticisms apply to St. Pancras International, too -
would you recommend I get a cab there? Was the person who built the
Thameslink box just wasting concrete?
