    The picadilly line and the security guards are the worst I'd ever seen!

    I arrived London yesterday at 5:00a.m., than I need to catch a train in King's Cross station, so I used Picadilly Line.

    OK...I went in on Heathrow Airport Terminal 1,2,3 as usual with my luggage, but when I arrived at Green Park Station, there was an announcement said, "The Picadilly Line is now suspended! Go to change a bus!" =.=
    (That's about 6:00a.m.)

    I had never been to Green Park station and I had never got on a bus in England before, so I asked the security guard.
    Guard: Ya?
    jynx: excuse me...what shall I do now?
    guard: I don't understand..speak again
    jynx: I'm going to King;'s Cross.
    guard: Go to.................
    jynx: I don't understand.
    guard: Right..go out from exit2, follow the signs, to Victoria Station and get another tube train to King's Cross.Ten minutes walk.
    -----------------------------------------------------
    There weren't any signs outside o_O|||
    I walked round and round the park...finally find some.
    The signs were not drawn accurately, I had no idea what it said. There was an arrow pointing "North", so I got my compass out.

    The "North" does not point to North!!!!

    So I took a long time to find "Victoria Subway", but when I got out of it, the sign said"-->Victoria Staion 800m" And there were no signs anymore!

    There weren't anyone on the street and I don't understand the map and I was so badly prepared. I went through like 3 subways with my 16.4kg luggage @_@|||

    And then, when I found Victoria Station...it was 7:30 a.m.!!

    It was 8:00a.m. when I got to railway station...and the earliest train to my school was 10:30a.m.

    Picadilly Line is the thing that got me the most trouble!!! =.= =.= =.= =.=
     
    ha lol... you know that guard? that was me. lol.
     
    I don't believe it!
    He's very old and is African...
    if you really were, you'd be used to my speech structure and therefore understand what I said!
    -----------------------------------------
    It was raining yesterday! I think I got a cold now...
     
    It's bad, but not that bad really. I have to admit, London is a bit confusing, especially if you've never been there before, but one case of yours is pretty rare here, so people - DON'T AVOID THE LONDON UNDERGROUND!!!
     
    I've been there before...but I'd never been to that station before!

    All I knew before was...Heathrow Airport Station, King's Cross Station! That's it!
    Now...I know 2 more stations than these...that makes a 4! XD
     
    I have to say. I spend my weekends in London. (i live in dublin). I have never had a problem with the London Underground. I use it all the time and the only once has it annoyed me. The time I got my foot stuck in the door, lol! But thats another story.
     
    Ever so dreadful eh? Last time I heard that phrase was a Shirly Temple movie...

    *cringe*

    Well anyway, when I was in spain, I went to the "underground" parsay....I didn't find it so bad. The had me go through these "lines" and stuff which lead to "busses." Then I sat in a, "chair."

    golly, so much jargon

    "BOO ya!"
     
    I've been to London, the Underground was fun if a bit dirty and overcrowded XD
     
    I thought it was fun! XD But you have to be careful of pickpockets XD
     
    yeah? so wat if my location SAYS japan. that WAS me my location says japan cuz the real imakuni? livs in japan and i based my user name of the real imakuni?
     
    Neh...I used underground because I need to get a train to Northern England.
    Where my school is.
    Far far away from London...
    Even further than my home...
