Have been cycling into central London for 20 years and still love it. It's possible to completely avoid main roads and avoid most of the traffic - the benhill road & Portland st route is pretty much car free. I shower before I go and take care not to wear too much, then just get changed at work. There's really no need for another shower after 25 mins on a bike.

You probably walk behind / ahead of me ;) as that's pretty much the same route I take at the moment. I USED to do the Peckham and/or east Dulwich to London Bridge then the hideous crammed northern line to Camden town journey. Hated it !

fair enough - i figured you must have discounted it for a reason. When I used to work that way the Overground wasn't up and running yet and I used to get off the 78/63 bus at Bricklayers arms and walk up and across Tower Bridge. Admittedly that's a longish walk but compared to staying on that single-decker cattle-truck all the way to Aldgate I was glad of the air

    • Hope all the ‘high streets for people’ events went well! Very short notice probably for people living in the area and on a very hot day!  James McAsh just doesn’t know what to do next with Southwark Council Tax payers money. He advocates the few streets in the area that has a bus service and then shuts the routes down! Very annoying for people who want to go about their daily business and have already had restrictions brought in by McAsh. 
    • Thank goodness for Greg. I had an awful situation whereby I was notified that water was leaking from my flat into the flat below me. I was 150 miles away at the time and had a panicked journey home not knowing what I was going to face.   I called Greg (after seeing reviews on the forum) as soon as I arrived home in the evening and he arrived just after 10pm and was able to shut off the problem. He had to come back to finalise the job which turned out to be caused in a communal area whereby there was a blockage in the stack pipe.   Greg worked quickly, efficiently and informed me every step of the way as to what he was doing and why. He also cleaned up really well afterwards.  Greg's charges are very reasonable and he will definitely be my "go-to" if I have any other plumbing issues in the future.
