Saturday November 17th 2012 ~ A Chinese and the New Routemaster

Started with Solo OS16 on the W5 from Harringay Sainsbury's to Waterlow Park, Highgate. I do quite like this bus route. Then at Highgate Village we boarded President TP414 on the 271 for a slow and arduous journey down  Highgate Hill and Holloway Road to Highbury Corner. Traffic wasn't particularly bad, it was just the bus went slowly! Then onto the Victoria Line at Highbury & Islington to head for Victoria and some Chinese food...

At around 15.00 we boarded Enviro400 no.9544 on the 211 on Victoria Street for a run to it's terminus by the concourse at Waterloo station. Walked over the Thames to Trafalgar Square for Enviro400 T264 on the 29 for the short journey up Charing Cross Road to Foyle's bookstore. Then it was Gemini DW413 on the 38 from Shaftesbury Avenue to Victoria, and at Victoria it was on to New Routemaster (I'll call them that for now) LT1 on the 38 for a ride to Bloomsbury Square where we got off to get a Piccadilly Line tube from Holborn back to Manor House.
