How not to start the day

[chickenfeet]

I woke up with a persistent earworm of the Terence and Philip song and it's snowing. I think I should just cancel today.

I also realised that I know people who teach at the Universities of Victoria and Waterloo. Are there any other universities named after London railway termini?

Oh! Aren't Radcliffe, Vassar, et al. the Seven Sisters?

That's really a stretch. Seven Sisters is a tube stop on the Victoria Line. For all I know there may be a University of Chipping Ongar or Clapham Common but they hardly count as railway termini.

Oh -- I missed the 'Railway Termini' part and just thought of the tube (although strangely, when I think of Victoria, it is the railway station I see in my mind's eye). Possibly because I've only ever taken trains from Victoria, Eustace, and St. Pancras.

Eustace?

That is definitely where Ernest should have been found!
