But, mate, where are ‘We R Blighty’ meant to stand?
JESUSS!!
So glad I could take the day off.
This looks like hell!!!
God you couldn’t pay me to stand in that. I walked home.
Rainy London on a tube strike day, definitely one of the circles of hell
You had the right idea going to the pub. I’d start walking or start drinking.
PNW here: Why not heavy duty rain parkas? All those umbrellas!
Glad was normal at 4:40 when I got there
Fucking let people work from home this week already.. this is nothing but torturing employees
Great shot
I don’t know why I bothered checking, but the TfL app says Farringdon is closed due to overcrowding.
This may come as earthshattering news to anyone who hasn’t seen the above picture.
Hehe I was just there. I was like fuck this. Walked to blackfrairs, there was no queue. My normal train was delayed because it always is. Got my train.. now I’m on my way home.
Looks terrible, for sure. Glad I’m off sick. But… what pub is that the view from!?
That’s such a cool photo.
Fucking hell. It’s now supposedly reopened though.

So glad I don’t work
Unrelated – was at Clapham Junction on way home and again some trespasser made those going to Victoria incl myself stranded. Why are there so many trespassers?
Man cycling hits different during tube strikes
Sorry, it’s such a fucking joke that so many of these offices can’t just okay a week of WFH during strike action. I hate capitalism man give me a fucking break
🤢
Farringdon had only just reopened after an alarm.
Fuck the greedy tube staff
Mixture of underground strikes and apparently an evacuation earlier at Farringdon due to a fire alarm.
Was very confusing and naturally typical that work had planned for us to go via Farringdon but glad I live north and don’t work London. Elizabeth train I was on announced we wouldn’t stop Farringdon then stopped Farrringdon just as it was opening and there were people sprinting down escalators and running as if their life depended on the next Elizabeth line ignoring staff shouting at them to not run.
Definitely annoying if you’re there but it’s a cool picture
I thought I was looking at a Camden art installation for a second. Nice pic
More colourful umbrellas please.
As a photographer I would have picked out isolated colourful brollies surrounded by black ones for some nice photos.
Seeing this out of the window, would cement me into that seat in the pub for a good couple of hours.
At least they’re dry. Bless.
I might either be a psychic or the luckiest man alive as I booked a holiday for this week a few months ago and didn’t even know about the strikes. Typing this from Spain right now 🤣🤣
I was on the train coming into Farringdon just as this happened. If I heard correctly, a fire alarm went off and the had to evacuate, so all trains have been just passing through and not stopping (which I guess is good – if it’s not major they wouldn’t let anything through, so hopefully will be cleared up soon?)
My heart goes out to the soggy people of Farringdon 🙏🏽
