Is it a national holiday because it’s my 20th wedding anniversary? Or is it simply because everyone knew it was going to be 31 degrees today which is almost unheard of for mid-September? Almost but not quite. The weather was just as beautiful in Islington 20 years ago when I married my current wife. Whatever the reason, I’m pretty sure that all the absentees from the Northern Line this morning are currently doing this.
The tube was unusually empty this morning.
