South west trains, especially from Woking when they turn up every 5 minutes, are fantastic. Windsor line won't be quite as good in my view however. There's simply no comparison with motoring. A 20 minute delay happens about one in 20 journeys.....but by car that happens one in five in my view. The Jubilee to the east from W'loo is brilliant now too, few stops so quicker than the old lines.
Cross rail will help, when you're pensionable and the girlfriend is pink fluffy dicing you for forgetting your anniversary.

I was standing in central Paris in midwinter at around 0c. It was the rush hour and the big scooters were coming in, many ridden by young women.
Nothing exeptional about that?
Well, they were really pushing it, like a bike race, some had waterproof heavy duty plastic sheets across their knees, remnants of snow on some of them. They looked frozen, as if some had come in from well outside the city.
Compared with the cars, they seemed like `knights on chargers` much faster than I would ride a bike.
Later every nook and cranny outside premises had scooters crammed in.
Dont know what central Londons like these days, is it similar?
