Receptionist: *cheerfully* Well I just need to see when our edger is in!
Me:
Her: She's not full time, she only edges on certain days! :)

The legend lives on, from the Britons on down
Of the river they called the Tamesis
The river, they say, acts more like a bay
When the tides hit the sand banks near Sheerness
With a hold full of bombs, weighing 6000 tonnes
Came the good ship the Richard Montgomery

I'm not saying a writer's retreat is a bad thing. I'm just saying that it should be a tactical decision designed to lure your enemy into a trap so you can turn a difficult situation into a successful writer's attack.

Under Over Over - West Hampstead
So it's taken a while, but I've finally found a location where you can clearly see London Underground trains traveling over London Overground trains.
The vantage point is at West Hampstead Overground station at the end of the platform.
