The starting station is a good one, London Bridge!
Any good suggestions on where we should meet?

If any closed stations have been drawn the ruling is:
Blackfrairs - pass through on District line is okay.
Cannon Street - pass through on District line is okay.
Tottenham Ct Rd - MUST be visited on the Central line, a pass through on the Northern line is not allowed.
One day I shall return!

At the base of The Shard by the bus station, perhaps? If not, how about the top of the escalators down to the Tube in the main concourse (pretty much adjacent to platforms 9/10)?

Last time we did a challenge from Bridge we met up by the cash machines next to the main entrance to the NR concourse in the bus station. This area is still there despite the closure of the bus station during the Shard construction works.

This is a Central line train to "Woodford via Hainault"- sadly, not no more!

I may be slightly slowed down as I have encouraged one of my "bus friends" to come along and run around the Tube with me.

He says he is the world's worst dart player...

Paddington [Cir/H&C] is also closed?

No Circle or Hammersmith and City?

Would that mean that Paddington (H&C/Circ) would also be closed?

That's what I think. The only line that is running through Paddington, that's operating is the Bakerloo line.
