I originally had the admin account and a "normal" ones, yes.

But in the end I decided to stop using the "normal" one.

Soon after moving south, and looking for ways of spending my free time now the theme parks (where I spend the rest of the year) have shut, I found 'the London Underground Appreciation Society' on facebook, which I think has a couple of members from here on it, including past record holders, who made reference to this site... I followed the link - and here I am... having already done my first All Lines challenge!

Will, take a look at my site under theme park challenge, we plan to try similar challenges at Thorpe Park and Alton Towers next year, but we reckon that our time set at Chessington is fairly safe (well at least for 5 months!)
One day I shall return!

Ha :D Already surprised by the number of theme park enthusiasts I've found on here (including a couple from my 'home' site CoasterForce.)

Love the idea - definitely up for similar attempts next year, since I'll be back in the area much of the time once they reopen! Bit too dependent on how busy the park is (and I've never seen Chessington quiet enough to do seven in 40 minutes!), and not enough scope for varying the attractions... and if you did it at Alton the running would kill you :p Nice videos as well, incidentally.
The DLR goes to Lewisham. The question is, why?

Hi Will, welcome to tubechallenge and look forward to meeting you on a future challenge :D
Would you be kind enough to post the link to L. U. Appreciation Society as would be interested to have a nose around on this site :D
