Oh Jubilee...

...What will Michael Jackson do?...

Back on May 2, my friend and I had to endure the biggest transport fails of all times ... almost. As we struggled to make our way to the Pink concert at the O2 using virtually every means of transportation short of boats, we learned that when the Jubilee line is down on concert dates, getting to the O2 arena becomes nigh impossible a task...

The O2 is probably the most famous entertainment venue in London.
The only tube line that goes to the O2 is the Jubilee line.
On concert dates, thousands of people try to get to the venue.
No Jubilee line = hell.
TfL (Transport for London) have decided to bring hell to London by closing down the Jubilee line almost every weekend this summer. Wham!
Michael Jackson's 50 concert dates at the O2 starting in July will basically suck, transport-wise, for the most part, as there'll be no tube to transport all the crazy fans! Well, isn't that the best time to do tube repairs? Over summer, when the O2 is pretty much fully booked?

Makes perfect sense, right? Good luck catching all those 'Out of Service' buses, everyone! Just get cabs while you're at it, all other means of transportation to the Bubble are useless.
