Unless it became a major Problem which is unlikely the event will still go ahead as planned.

Sigh, the odds of the tube system being closed due to a pandemic are virtually zero... I will bring a mask along just in case. And a lab coat.

It was not absurd to assume I was still in Australia, but I'm not. I'm back in Dunstable, and next week I'll be up to the rigs of London town.

Good luck to everyone taking part today, sorry that I won't be able to make it. I was hoping to get along this evening but this now looks unlikely. Hope that you all have a great day.
I will be doing the Random 15 tomorrow so hopefully will see some of you there.

I thought it was a cracking day - very tight times at the top (which I guess either Andi or scrxisi will report in detail) and generally enjoyable on the ground. Thanks to Andi and Garion for organising it all.
Roll on tomorrow, and R15 (although I'm totally knackered after two challenges today - self inflicted I know!)
P.S. And thanks to Tubeguru for being an excellent Quiz Master!

Thanks everybody, especially Andi, Garion and Neil. That was a thoroughly enjoyable challenge indeed. My route just wasn't up to scratch, however, despite being blessed with some cracking changes and a Goodge Street run that could hardly have been better, but was still not good enough to beat Karahan and company on the Tube.
