Default Underground help please

I'm really stuck on this so decided to ask here.

Next week I need to visit a university, and I have to go from London Padington to London Liverpool Street on the underground. I haven't been on it before, and I will be on my own. And I have NO clue on what to do, so can someone help

Thanks and long time,
Christopher Biggins (my hidden identity)


P.S - I'm now driving - I finally have independence! And exams all this week, hense this procrastinating.

Do you mean you don't know how to get around or that you don't know how to use the tube?

On the right you'll see a Journey Planner. Click advanced options and just enter where you're getting on and where you're getting off.

It's extremely helpful.

I remember you to! It's weird now I do recognise everyone. How are you Princess? Still love Take That? And well done on becoming a admin thing! I'm on this account because I thought the other one was still banned? But please dont delete the thread, I just need help :P

Thanks for that link Mark, it doesn't look that complex, are there lots of assistants there to ask for help? And what if you miss a stop?

You'd enter Paddington train station, head down to the underground part [there's a staircase near Krispy Kreme], and follow the circle, hammersmith+city or metropolitan line signs until you reach the platform, you want the platform that'll have Liverpool street in the list of station. Then all ya gotta do is wait until you get there. Simples :]

If you miss a train, don't worry. They arrive every 10 minutes or so. Just get there super early. I'd worry more about rush hour. Literally carriages packed up with people. Whenever I visit London I try to avoid the tube.

Oh you are so kind, Darenn.

You knew very well undergroundhelp was joking, still you answered genuinely and correctly.

I should remember you now on.

I wasn't joking; it's hardly a funny joke Thanks btw Darenn, I am looking for tickets now; its so expensive.

Which of these would you reccomend;

From London Paddington take the Circle Line (Eastbound, Platform 16) which is a direct service to Liverpool Street Underground Station.
Alternatively:

From London Paddington take the Hammersmith & City Line (Eastbound, Platform 16) which is a direct service to Liverpool Street Underground Station.

And thanks for the advise Enid, luckily I think I should be missing peak hours. And what do you mean LeatherTrumpet?

No, you do not say!

You are clever enough to go for uni business, yes?

Then I still believe you are kidding us.

But just in case you are really serious, good luck.
