I (almost) daren't say this out loud but... could it be that all those travel fears were for nothing? I've had no problems getting in nor getting home via London Bridge. Admittedly I don't have to tube it anywhere.


Work colleagues have all been pleasantly surprised too. In fact I'm yet to find ayone who has experienced any problems...


How has everyone else fared?

Some Olympic Park events will have finished by then, so numbers will probably even themselves out.


The major change is the reduction of commuters because of holidays, changed travel patterns or people working from home.


What might cause problems is if numbers of people see that travel links are OK and start travelling as normal.

The Millennium Bug DID happen but in very isolated patches. One Hospital had the year 4000 displayed on its appointment system. However many problems were averted by the checking of millions of lines of code and corrected the od bit that required it. I know I made a fortune out of it.

    • Atanas did a brilliant job on my bathroom renovation. Nothing was too much trouble and they were clean and tidy. Highly recommend.
    • If we accept what the OP has written, and it does seem credible, the father did not respond to the incident appropriately. His child was out of his line of sight when the OP was hit from behind by the child on a bike. Many of us, having been startled like this, might express some displeasure. Rather than a sincere and concerned apology, it sounds as though the father instead attempted to paint the OP as the problem, even laughing at them. I don't know what kind of message that would send to his child but doubt it is a good one. 
    • I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.
