Thanks, as ever.
Is “Night Tube timetables, due to start on Friday 19 August, are now available for the Central and Victoria lines” supposed to be a link, or just a confusing underscored bit of text?
Thanks for pointing that out Brian, apologies for the confusion. Wasn’t meant to be a link so have removed the underline that was there for emphasis!
Thanks.
