Sombrero Fallout 904c2f2f-4e79-40b4-8830-16b4909b1948 The wearer of this fallout will receive many funny looks, but there can be no doubt that this is truly a king Sombrero in a world reduced to poor imitations.
I, for one, can honestly say that it's often easier to walk in London than jump on the Tube. I walk from Charing Cross to close to Warren Street each day. It's a good 20 minute walk, but considering that on the tube it takes at least 15 minutes (including walking around the stations) and you can't guarantee the time due to delays etc and it costs quite a bit, it's much easier walking.
(I admit to resorting to the bus about once a month if I'm running late, but I've not worked out where the bus goes from to get back to Charing Cross)
Walking is the easiest, and cheapest form of exercise, so get out there and try walking your normal tube route, you may be surprised (and you may save money!)

Which way do you walk? also, what bus do you get? Just thinking of the tube problems over the next couple of days
Many Thanks

Up St Martin's Lane... to the 7 Stars junction, Monmouth Street, over Oxford Street etc and then up the road parallel to Tottenham Court Road to Bedford Square - cut through at any point. It's not a bad walk...
