ED To O2

[bob]

Any advice on getting from ED to the O2.

Train to London Bridge then jump on the Jubilee line

[Jah Lush]

Or train from Forest Hill to Canada Water and then jump on Jubilee Line. It's a cheaper option as you won't have to go via London Bridge.

[bob]

Thanks MM and Jah

i'd go train to lb then train to maze hill or the other train station that's close but can't remember the name of but will show up on google maps

[sophiesofa]

it was annoying me so i looked it up westcombe park station although they are both a similar distance from 02

[Keef]

Do Jah's route, it's easily the quickest.

About 15 minutes on London Overground, Forest Hill - Canada Water.

About 5 minutes on Jubilee Line, Canada Water - North Greenwich.

Plus, as Jah says, you don't go in to Zone 1, so it's cheaper.

[ruffers]

Jah does indeed speak the truth.

And a taxi back.

[Mamma Mia]

Thanks guys. Hadn't considered going via Forest Hill before. Will try that way next time.

[SeanMacGabhann]

And by taxi back, don?t wait until the very end. Leave just as the last song of the encore starts and use the cab servce in the foyer. Can save a dismal hour or two

[Ant]

But... how do you know it's the last song of the encore until it's over?

[Jah Lush]

It ain't over till the fat lady sings.

[Keef]

Tube runs late enough to get home, I'd do that.

[bob]

Thanks to every one looks like Jahs going, cab back any one know the price.

Bob S

[ruffers]

Depends where bob's going really.

Cab's are quite organised with prices fixed iirc. ?25 rings a bell, I think. It was late and drink had been taken so don't treat that as a quote..

[bob]

Back to good old ED for a late one.

Bob S

[ruffers]

mrs ruffers remembers 35, oops.

[beaver14uk]

Goes without saying to check engineering works as most weekends the Jubilee line is down. It certainly is Monday.

[mlteenie]

Train to London Bridge and then the Thames Clipper, it's fantastic - cheap, exhilerating and drops you right at the door.

[sophiesofa]

oh yes getting the boat is fun

[bob]

Thanks to all for the help went Jah's root there and back in time for drinkes and curry at Mirash. Rod was great.

Bob S

[ziggy]

Yep, I did this on Sunday. And only ?1.30 Oyster PAYG. New Overground service is excellent!

[TillieTrotter]

What Mlteenie said. It's a great way to go.

[bob]

TT

Will give that a go next time.

hi went to the o2 last night, and def the new overground was so easy, ?1.30 and there in less than an hour including the 25 min walk up the hill. we used panther cabs to come back and booked it in advance for and hour after the gig finished(bars were still open inside 02)picked us up on millenium way.

Cost ?20 back bargain and so easy.
