My head has gone blank tonight and is struggling to get ideas pieced together... All I've done so far tonight is find out where our hotel at Heathrow is, and that we need to get to T4 to start..
T4, round to T123 - then change for a very tight connection (booked a minus) back to T5, and then away from the airport... After that, as per yesterdays starting plan..

So, starting at Heathrow T4, head round to T123, back to T5, and then head out to Acton Town.
From there, head one stop to Chiswick Park, then double back and head up to Ealing Broadway..
Head east to West Acton, then walk/trot up to North Ealing on Foot...
The a nice long run up to Uxbridge, double back to Ickenham... From there, again on foot to West Ruislip.. Then from there, one of the longest runs of the day - from West Ruislip to Liverpool Street..
Change lines and head back west to Baker Street..
Then Jubilee Line up to Wembley Park.. From there take the Met Line to West Harrow, then on foot to North Harrow... Trek up to end of line at Amersham, back to Chalfont and Latimer to do the Chesham branch.. Then back to Moor Park to do the Watford Branch..
To be continued...

Who and where...
My work colleague Sion is going to accompany me on this crazy venture.. Though if anyone else wants to cheer us along on the day - then they're more than welcome to tag along for all or part of the journey :-)
Provisional plan at the minute is to start at Heathrow - we've got a room reserved at the Ibis Hotel there to hopefully get a decent nights sleep the night before - and there's a shuttle bus to the terminals from 0420 - so that'll get us to the tube stations for the first tube out...
The next post will have the first part of our planned route listed... Though this is subject to change (especially if anyone can suggest a better more efficient routing!)

Welcome to my blog about my forthcoming Tube Challenge.
On November 5th 2013, I plan to travel the London Underground network with the aim of visiting all 270 stations (or as close as possible!).
I'm doing this for charity - my chosen charity is the Neonatal Unit of Swansea's Singleton Hospital.
If you wish to sponsor me, please visit my justgiving site.
I will shortly be listing the provisional plans for the day :-)
