Day 183. Travelling above ground.


I don't mind travelling on the tube. When it's running smoothly it's unquestionably the quickest way to get from Kings Cross to the office. And if I time it correctly I don't have to stand with my face pressed into someone's armpit, just one of the downsides of being small, or if I'm sitting, try to avoid staring at the crotch of the person standing in front of me. Surely there's some etiquette required here - sideways on please people...

When I discovered the joys of Hailo last year, the app for booking taxis based on available drivers and their proximity to your current location, I have to admit my taxi bill increased considerably. Not that I'm complaining. Had I been on the tube today I wouldn't have passed by this agency window, splendidly decorated with Roberts radios. Just one of the benefits of travelling above ground.
