Its a joke, I arrived at dead on 08:10 today and did not see the train leave so assume that was cancelled, the 08:20 and 08:30 were definitely cancelled. Coming back this evening the 20:10, 20:25 and 20:40 we all cancelled, it is getting to the point there is one train an hour now, its an absolute disgrace.

What's the latest on this? The signs said to be finished in 23/7 but it is yet to finish it. They appear to be filling the whole back up so that's a good sign

I get the the souvlakis all the time and think they are excellent. The fact that it is busy most of the time speaks volumes. I have also been to Greece multiple times and they seem pretty authentic to me. Keep up the good work Souvlaki team!

Anyone else water off now?

Mine came on on Underhill late last night, was okay this morning. Whoever made the comment it is not the end of the world, well that is obvious and that is a stupid comment, but it is very poor service from Thames Water and I have never lived at a location where the water goes off so much and people have the right not to be best pleased.

I had it for about 30 seconds on Underhill half an hour ago and off since then.

I hope so, I got back from a run a need to wash!

Whats that, third time this year?

Finally a Japanese !!!!!!!!!!!

I think it has got significantly worse, take yesterday for example, the 08:20 sits outside the station so arrives at 08:50 and then the normal debacle getting out on platform 15. In the evening I had to leave earlier so got on the 17:10, which sat there for 15 mins before saying delayed and then they told everyone to go on the 17:25, to which a huge rush ensued and someone fell over (she seemed to be alright lucklily but her shoe didn't!!). About an hour later my girlfriend tried to get on the train and the whole sations was shut due to overcrowding so she had to get the bus. This morning the 08:20 rolled in at 08:50 again......... I am very much looking forward to have a chat at the next meet the managers session, I wonder if they will offer to refund the days where people who had already bought a ticket used the bus and had to buy another ticket there.....anyway rant over....... but temper not cooled down yet !

Anyone else finding the trains a joke since the bank holiday weekend refurb? A pretty big hold up coming in or out every day seems to be getting worse.

P13 is not the most reliable, you get two in 5 mins and then nothing for 25-30 mins. Also they seem to bear no resemblence to the time table at all. I use the Bus Countdown app on my pohne to check when it is coming rather than wait outside for ages.

Agree re arrivals, the 14 minute train ride now seems to take nearly 25 minutes.

Buses were much more crowded and you sometimes had to watch a few go by.

Cheers, hopefully I will be off for Christmas by then but feel sorry for the poor b*ggers that are not as last week was a pain.

Is this "mega change" at Christmas (20th December to 4th January) another planned closure like last week?

Tehre were fire works last night outside, it could have been that. We were trying to work out what they were for, Bastille day maybe?

This was not a slight dip, there was almost a drip coming out at one point, just at my shower time, my girlfriend 30 mins earlier was fine !!!! Agree pressure drops in the morning but thsi was more. It is supposed to be the hottest day of the year today, and that was the time the water went of last year so fingers crossed !!!

Great, thanks for the info, kind of glad its not a problem witht he my flat and was main water supply.

Did anyone else lose almost all the water pressure around 07:15 this morning, both hot and cold taps were jsut a trickle, it seemed to pick up before I left. I am wondering if this was an issue at my flat or Thames water issue again?

Slow flow on Underhill.......

"They've been handing out info leaflets morning and nights for at least a week!" - Unlurked, yes they had, and then on Friday they cancelled the trains they had carfeully pointed out were still running so half the leaflet was a waste of time. Today was my first time coming into the new platform 15, it was very narrow and took ages to get out. Lets hope it grows when the works get further on as 10 mins getting out of the station everyday is not fun.

What a shambles Friday was, they had people all week giving out leafelts stating the reduced service adn providing the only trains times on Friday afternoon then during the day cancelled the ones that they said were running !!! Another problem this morning meant I got the bus in, does anyone know of this was related to the weekend works and will the trains be runinng tonight ? No updates on National Rail site since this morning.

Underhill Road was gritted last week, not sure why it hasn't been sine then as half of it blows away. A serious lack of gritting going on at the moment which is concerning !
