One word of warning, Covent Garden tube station is one of the deepest on the underground network and access to the street is via one of four cavernous lifts. The alternative for those who can’t use lifts (or for getting back if the station is closed) is to use Leicester Square station (also on the Piccadilly Line, Northern Line and Bakerloo Line) which is a mere 0.16 miles as the crow flies (or the track lies!) from Covent Garden.

The show was great, very entertaining, and more than made up for how stiflingly uncomfortably warm it was inside the theatre in June. No trip to London would be complete without going to the theater. www.batemanfamily.org /photogallery/europe2003/londontheater.html

rodcorp: May 2004 If everyone has personal ley lines running through the city, marked here and there with their own Hawksmoor-analogues, then two of the sites in the Rodcorpian earthbound constellation are Stanfords map shop on Long Acre and the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden.

London Underground Tube Diary - Going Underground's Blog Apparently according to the Sunday Telegraph only 14% of commuters questioned were in favour of mobile phones at all stations and not the "inflated" 83% which tube bosses gave to the phone companies so they'd invest in the operation. There's lots of tube quizzes doing the rounds, I always thought that the London Underground quiz that I'd put on my site was fiendishly difficult, and get emails from people asking me to put them out of their misery and end their sleepless nights. Travelling into work yesterday (on the overground part of the District Line - all the kerfuffle about mobiles on the tube is lost on me considering half of my regular line is above ground everyone uses their mobiles until they hit Gloucester Road), someone's mobile was going off with a really familiar tone. london-underground.blogspot.com
