    Hidden London Hangouts has definitely been a highlight of 2020, and something I hope will continue into 2021. Merry Christmas to you all, and thank you.

    I'm glad Alex has exchanged his double entendres for more appropriate seasonal puns - Elf & Safety!

    Thanks very much Alex, Chris, Siddy and Laura for helping take the sting out of 2020 and keeping us entertained and informed.
    I might not have been able to get underground but these hangouts have been a great substitute.😁👍

    Merry Christmas to all of you!! I used to live in London and fell in love with the history of the transit system across the city. Moving back home to Canada, I was sad I couldn't participate in the Hidden London tours and was ELATED when I saw they were being turned into a virtual affair. From there I was introduced to these Hangouts and I can't thank you all enough for the virtual tours and these Hangouts. You all have reinvigorated my love and curiosity for all things London Transport and I cannot thank you enough, especially during these darker COVID times.
    Hope you all had/continue to have a wonderful holiday season. Stay safe!

    Merry Christmas to Alex, Chris, Laura and Siddy from Brisbane Australia. We may have missed out on our planned visit to London this year, but watching the show every week has gone some way to fill that gap in our travels. It's also given us heaps of things to look out for when ever we can get to London.

    Merry Christmas from Chicago! My wife and I had to cancel our trip to London earlier this year, so has been great to visit London virtually through these Hangouts. Wishing all of you a happy 2021!

    Many thanks for your efforts this year. I'm grateful that you're making all these wonderful videocasts. I spent a lot of my youth on the underground and a small amount of time there nowadays. I miss London out of lockdown. All my love to you guys.

    Happy Christmas to the team. Having done all the Hidden London tours since they started, and having received several LTM gifts this Christmas, I can't wait to revisit London and see all those things at stations that I have missed on past visits. You have done a wonderful job, please keep going in 2021. Many thanks to you all.

    Bring back London Transport! Complete with enamel badges, christmas puddings, canteens and LT tea. (Did they have staff bars?) I did work briefly for LT in the late 60s early 70s, but can only remember that "Officers" had nicer Loos and so on, and there was always a tea trolley with cheese rolls... When we audited the staff canteens in garages and depots, I do recall some of the mens bogs were rather primitive..

    Hope you all had a great Christmas. I had the ‘seats of London’ book for Christmas. Fabulously geeky! And thank you all for brightening up a drab and boring Boxing Day!

    With the magic of post-editing you would have thought that you would have magicked Laura's presents to her before you released the video... Or Laura already has hers, and is a good actress!
