Jubilee is closed on Wednesday 29th from Stanmore to West Hampstead so it would not be possible to visit Canons Park.

Damn, I was hoping that 29 December would be the day... just so I can experience the HSTs at Waterloo!

Might still come up during that period anyway... still need to get some radio recordings done...!

I've been very busy for a good few months now so I haven't been able to read the Forum for this period, however I've just seen now that the Park Challenge could be on Tuesday 21st December. If it is, then I could certainly go and I'd be very interested in actually completing the challenge this time!

29th I could have done, but the 21st is out for me unfortunately. I really like this challenge, it's the one I always try and make an effort to come to.
