No No No we can't have that ~ switching to the District line at Tottenham Court Road ~ I think not
You've either got to catch a bus or backtrack to Earl's Court to get anywhere sensible now. Unless you plan on camping at Wimbledon for a few weeks to get tickets.

    Before the Roman came to Rye or out to Severn strode,
    The rolling English drunkard made the rolling English road.
    A reeling road, a rolling road, that rambles round the shire,
    And after him the parson ran, the sexton and the squire;
    A merry road, a mazy road, and such as we did tread
    The night we went to Birmingham by way of Beachy Head.

    I knew no harm of Bonaparte and plenty of the Squire,
    And for to fight the Frenchman I did not much desire;
    But I did bash their baggonets because they came arrayed
    To straighten out the crooked road an English drunkard made,
    Where you and I went down the lane with ale-mugs in our hands,
    The night we went to Glastonbury by way of Goodwin Sands.

    His sins they were forgiven him; or why do flowers run
    Behind him; and the hedges all strengthening in the sun?
    The wild thing went from left to right and knew not which was which,
    But the wild rose was above him when they found him in the ditch.
    God pardon us, nor harden us; we did not see so clear
    The night we went to Bannockburn by way of Brighton Pier.

    My friends, we will not go again or ape an ancient rage,
    Or stretch the folly of our youth to be the shame of age,
    But walk with clearer eyes and ears this path that wandereth,
    And see undrugged in evening light the decent inn of death;
    For there is good news yet to hear and fine things to be seen,
    Before we go to Paradise by way of Kensal Green.


So there you have it Kensal Green

Ha! At last we are on the Northern Line (and just look at the muck in here!)
I feel it incumbent upon me to shout MORNINGTON CRESCENT


Bugger can't get to it from this branch ... oh well  Camden Town then

We could complicate matters by playing the Great Bear version. A poster of which is on my wall. A work of genius.

In the meantime then, St Kentigern!
