I do find that newspaper headlines have a tendency to be rather melodramatic. Take tonight's one for example, I mean obviously a tube strike while the world's eyes are on London isn't going to look great, or inspire confidence for next year's Olympics. However I hardly think it's a real threat to the Royal Wedding since I can't imagine that Wills, Kate or any of their guests are planning taking the tube to the Abbey.

Mr W has a new challenge - he wants to run the routes of all the London tube lines visiting every station along on the way and raising money for Sands. He's calculated that it will involve over 300 miles of running and he's set himself the ambitious target of completing it within 9 months. This morning he set off early on his second run - last week he did the Victoria line and today he tackled the southern section of the Jubilee line. You can read about his exploits on his blog and if you're feeling generous sponsor him here: http://www.justgiving.com/runningthetubelines
