Boxing day public transport - is it me or is this a no brainer?

[malumbu]

In the good old days beyong the normal festive stuff (booze, reheated Turkey, family and telly) there was only one thing that you did on Boxing day - go to a local sporting event (normally football).

Now what does half the nation do - they go to Westfield.

So with no trains and limited tube West London is grid locked. Buses are no alternative as they are stuck in the traffic, worsened as those heading to and from Westfields are blocking junctions. [whinging about the tube strike is on another thread]

So before I write to Boris (no trains on Boxing Day)

DfT (ditto)

LB Hammersmith and Fulham (for allowing the nonsense that is Westfield on a Boxing day)

And the PM - for zero joined up thinking; it would be good to hear from others.

Was Westfield Stratford as bad? Bayswater? Croydon/Bromley/Lewisham??

To look on the bright side Arry will hopefully be stuck in the traffic on his way back to Sandbanks.
