if you're not here, it may be because you've not e-mailed me
and if you are on there you should have received this
So....some of you will be away from your work e-mail addresses over Christmas, so I'm sending out this little taster now. We'll leave Hyde Park Corner at 10.30, go by way of Hyde Park to look at a public toilet, look at a tyre emporium, check out an embassy, look at a tube station designed by the Romans (well, not quite) nod at the The Last Railroad, see a tower block built from the top down, check out the biggest pickle in the world, see the church that is the absolute finest building in London, and then head east so that I can deliver a Requiem to FAT (see below). We'll then go down to Shad Thames and tie one on.
Do please check your trains – Southern has a wideranging ban on non-folding bikes between Christmas and the New Year. Our destination is walking distance from London Bridge, and trains from that station will take you to East Croydon, Waterloo, St. Pancras, Farringdon and all points South East. If you’re heading out toward Essex you can walk to Fenchurch Street.
There’ll be a handout on the day, but, while I’ll be talking about particular buildings, there will be a theme, and that will be ‘representation and abstraction’, or, putting it another way, showing what you mean or not showing what you mean.
See you on the 29th

I'm sure London Victoria can help out on that score if ABO can't.2826590 said:

On FCC website re planned works over the holiday period:
From 27 December to 1 January inclusive, no cycles will be permitted on trains between London Blackfriars and East Croydon or on replacement buses. Our normal cycle restrictions will also be in place. Please visit our cyclists page for more information.
This will have an impact on anyone planning to use London Bridge station.

I can see my name on there but not 'received' anything - am I missing something here? This may be a stupid newbie question.

Nope. Southern is your friend: http://www.southernrailway.com/your-journey/cycle-policy/Christmas-cycle-policy.
It equates to the normal cycle policy on Southern ex LBG. So you can still take your bike to East Croydon and Purley no matter what FCC may say. VIC and the soggy bits further south are another story.

The Gatwick services are being routed variously via East Grinstead and Horsham using buses and local trains. No bikes on these. Normal Southern services to East Croydon and Purley that will terminate there will, by my reading of Southern's policy, be unaffected. Also Southeastern appears to be operating normally - indeed they are even more relaxed with "no guarantee that a bike can be carried on a bus replacement".
Hence most trains and some buses out of LBG will carry bikes folding and non-folding. I know that is no comfort to you but it will keep some exceedingly inebriated cyclists off the roads that evening.

No London Midland or Virgin trains into Euston on the morning of the 29th, although there are normal services out of Euston in the afternoon.
East Midlands Trains into St Pancras are expensive.
London Midland are running services as far south as Watford Junction in the morning and then replacement buses from Watford Junction (via Harrow & Wealdstone) to Euston.
0753 from Northampton it is then.
