50 pence (iN Da Pod)

I started my blog as a continuation of the daily write-up that I did when I got 500 people to give me 50p so that I could buy an iPod.

World Record Holders

There's a lot of tube related stuff on this site due to me being a former World Record Holder for travelling around the entire network (275 stations) in the fastest time possible back in May 2004.

Living in the USA

After living in London for the first 33 years of my life and working for the BBC News website I moved to Charleston, South Carolina in the USA in May 2006 for three and a half years before moving back to England and back to work for the BBC in November 2009.

But before I came back home, I went on an unforgettable roadtrip around the fascinating country that is America, and the angle was to combine my love of London (and the tube system) by finding same named places in the USA that matched places in London.

Underground : USA

So for ten weeks in June, July and August 2009, I drove 20,000 miles around the the lower 48 contiguous states of the USA visiting towns and places that shared the same name as places on The London Tube Map.
