It seems the majority preference for this is the 9th... so let's set it in concrete.

I can't confirm I'll be there (just moved house so everything's a bit hectic), but can you print an envelope in case?

The draw is currently taking place but I can confirm it is another south of the river start at STOCKWELL. Meet outside main entrance of the station, usual 12:30 starting time.

Lines closed:
--Northern: Kennington- Morden (bear this is mind when trying to reach the start)
--Piccadilly: Hammersmith- Ealing Common/Osterley
--District: Turnham Green- Ealing Broadway (Richmond branch open)
--East London: New Cross Gate- Crystal Palace/West Croydon

This is a "normal" no twists round, so just 15 random stations on the London Underground network in Zones 1-2.

See you there, can I have an attendance register please (including maybes).

Is there a starting station bias towards the southern end of the Northern Line? Because we've had Clapham South TWICE in recent challenges and now Stockwell is as far south as you can go...
