It didn't work, but easily fixed Smiley

My score is 11 out of 14.  Not too bad for an ex-Londoner.

Thanks.  I managed 12 out of 14. Never lived or work based in London, but seem to go there often enough for work.

I got 10/14. I tend to only travel on the pink yellow and black lines maybe once or twice a year at most so not bad! Being designated navigator probably helped a lot.
