To hear Chigwell in the snow
Soon to be yet another forum train driver

Shall we resurrect this, or does it make you cringe too much?

Yes, it does make me cringe, but:
Yes, let's resurrect it anyway!

After all, It's the season of bad puns... (and it was my fault for starting it last year...)

Piccadilly Line (Mistletoe and Wine)

Christmas time
Piccadilly line (Mistletoe and wine)
No service from Uxbridge to Acton (children singing Christian rhyme)
Use the Met to Rayners (with logs on the fire)
Lane, buses from there (and gifts on the tree)
If you live here then, you are unlucky (a time to rejoice in the goods that we bring)

I mean, Tube Richard.
I mean ME!
