On Monday (August 1) I had a morning appointment with some lawyers near Fleet St.

When I used to go to Gough Square, off Fleet Street, I used to walk to Blackfriars and catch the Circle Line to Paddington. Was usually less crowded.
When I said "near Fleet Street", what I actually meant was "Gough Square".

Thanks for clarifying that, Worcester_Passenger.  The Old Bailey is "near Fleet Street".  Roll Eyes

Just saying.  Shocked

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post (a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London), depending on context) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: Stop, Look, Listen.

Just in case anyone is unaware, a tube strike is planned on the H&C and Circle starting from 21:00 tonight until end of play tomorrow. May make the Bakerloo at Paddington a wee bit busier than normal.

Actually 2130-2130 Friday, wind down aroubd 2100.

There will be just a few Circke Line trains tomorrow, nothing on H&C

The H&C is also closed for Engineering Hammersmith - Edgeware Road this weekend as they test new signalling

Bakerloo, District and Circle (via Bayswater)

Looks like staff shortage effect some of the - err - smaller (!?  Undecided ) tube stations.  Paddington seems a surprising one to close!

Quote
London Underground - Paddington Station Closure

Due to staff shortages, London Underground have closed the Main Underground station at Paddington, this affects Bakerloo, Anti-Clockwise Circle, and District Line services.
Hammersmith & City and Circle Line trains are still running from Platforms 15 and 16.
Customers requiring Bakerloo line services are advised to take an Eastbound Hammersmith & City / Circle Line train from Platform 16, and change at BAKER STREET.
Customers requiring Anti-clockwise Circle, or Southbound District Line service are advised to take an Eastbound Hammersmith & City / Circle Line train from Platform 16, and change at EDGWARE ROAD.
Disruption is currently anticipated to last until 18:00 hours.

Maybe they redeploy staff from Paddington to other stations to keep them open? Paddington has more options - as noted - H&C or Circle to Baker Street or Edgware Road and change is doable, if not particularly convenient.
