Last week, we met the woman who's trying to pay a quality visit to each of London Underground's 274 tube stations.

I bring bad news for her. A few extras seem to have sprung up...

... and as you can see, she'll have to travel a little further than Cockfosters or Elephant & Castle to visit many of them. Lucky that we're prepared for the odd overnight stay:

Now here is a bold extension to an already ambitious project: to visit every known rip-off of London Transport's distinctive roundel, evidently the ultimate envy of designers and branding experts across the world. Together with the sharp, reassuring Johnson font, it's what you see when you close your eyes and think about London. And Byculla Mecanicks, obviously.

It would take years to do it, if indeed you'd ever finish. But the photos she'd take at some of the 'stations' would certainly lend variety to her blog...

So, I've come to a decision. Not to be beaten by the fact that inspiration dawned at Tubewhore's sliding door before it reached mine, I shall embark on an altogether more ambitious tour. I'll take a great idea, add a little twist, then badge it as my own - just as the creators of these signs have done.

Shame my Oyster won't take me further than the first stop...

More tube related musing at Annie Mole's great London Underground Diary, which is always worth a look.
