11. Angel


Saturday 27th April 11.45am

I used this station quite often when I had a friend who worked near it and always loved its big wide platforms and the coolness of the marble - it never seems crowded and there's something quite relaxed about it. And of course it has the longest escalator on the whole underground network, although when you know that fact it's hard not to get on the escalator and feel just a little bit disappointed. But now I rarely have need to use it, only if I'm going to Sadler's Wells, and even then I might be tempted to walk as it's not that far from King's Cross and is a nice walk if the weather is good.

And of course it's got a great name hasn't it?
