As the 1996 stock passes through Canning Town, I wake up startled and confused, realising I missed my stop I say 'Sod this!' and travel with you to the end of the line, where we break off as I head towards the nearest Wetherspoons.

you take the District Line to Monument, where you ring the bells at St. Magnus the Martyr. St. Magnus the Martyr, of course, has some of the bells run by the Ancient Society of College Youths.

Whoops, almost forgot to get my own game going again!

No idea what to do here, so just hop on the 388 bus (a personal favourite) to iCity, wherever the heck that is. Somewhere between Hackney Wick and Stratford I think.
