Me.
I was thinking of doing it, but I couldnt think of anything relevant to say. Then you go ahead and dont say anything related at all.

But of course. But then your mentioning of it in here was hardly relevant either, so I claim a draw!

Hello!

I am Kate. I like purple things. I take pictures, play guitar and sing in a band and like to ride the tube. I live in North London and have a penchant for MHE.

I have never done a full Challenge myself, nor even gone to all of the stations yet, but at some point I will. However, am not likely to be a record contender!

So far I have joined part of Geoff's and Chris's (and Vicki's and Anthony's and Matt F's) challenge team as Support Person and Photographer, from their Tube attempts 12-18.

Hello - although I think I know a few of you already! :D

It's probably about time I introduced myself. I'm Tom, I'm 42 and live in Macclesfield in Cheshire. I've no recent picture, but I'm fat, balding and wear glasses! I've always had an interest in maps, tunnels, timetables and transport networks in general, so I suppose it was inevitable I'd get interested in Tube Challenging in the end. I'd known about it vaguely for quite a while and then I heard it mentioned in a discussion on Radio 4 last year and thought "I must give that a try."
