2 hours? Jeez, be quicker to walk!
Was it that bad, even though cabs can use the bus lanes?

Addisson Lee cabs can't. The cab was late as previous booking had over run so we hit the peak of the rush hour

Just got in to work. 
3 hours 10 minutes.
Walked to tottenham South overground, apparently you couldn't get on the frist three or four but by the time I got there at 10 I was ok.
Train to Gospel Oak, another train to Acton Central, that bit took an hour. The other two hou=rs were spent on stupid buses wending their way round every cul de sac between Acton and Greenford.
On the way home I think I'll get a train from Greenford to Paddington and walk from there to Kings cross, then get a bus north.
Tomorrow, I don't think I'll bother, it seems silly doing 6 hours travel for 2 hours work.

Left work at 8am - was going to get the BBC shuttle bus to Broadcasting House but Wood Lane was rammed so walked to the new Shepherd's Bush overground station and managed to squeeze on a train to Clapham Junction, which took 15 mins or so. Got on the 37 bus which wasn't that full - got a seat which is good as I was feeling pretty tired. Traffic terrible - got home just before 10. Normally takes about 45 minutes. 
I have had four hours sleep.

Slightly different story this morning...
Got into Victoria at 07:50, just missed the departing 52, third in the queue for the next one (with C3POs out managing the queues)...no bus for 15 mins, it arrives and there were about 200 people waiting, stretching out into the bus exit lanes, on all the bays at Vicky...mental...

Isn't there more than one union for underground workers?
Hardly scabs then eh?
Those lines are run by different companies to LUL (Tubelines and Alstom).

Why does that affect union membership? Why aren't they all in RMT?
