Rather than get there at 10, queue, and be told the next appointment wasn't for hours anyway, I tried the new Concierge system which lets you choose any available slot (old system simply gave next available time).

I got to the site at 10:04. Next available slot: 13:40. Gotta love Regent Street.

(Booked in for 15:00.)

New i key and unjammed u key. Took 3 minutes. Tech said my name looked familiar... oh dear :) I also picked up a copy of iLife '06. They didn't have the Sims 2 expansion pack, even though it's supposedly been out since December. UK stores seem slow at getting new games.

On the way home, the Northern Line was shafted (signal failure at Leicester Square, no service from Camden to Kennington via Charing X) and we got a wit for a Victoria Line driver. "If you need to change for the Northern Line, and I recommend you don't..." "This station is Euston, change here for what's left of the Northern Line."

Naturally this meant a High Barnet train was waiting at the platform. Of course, when we got to East Finchley it decided to become a Mill Hill East train. Pah.
