I must admit I don't mind the LA2's early finishes too much as it gives me
the chance to have a beer/something to eat afterwards or in the case of
last
night be tucked up in bed in time to catch Mark Thomas. Certainly beats
all
the times I've been stranded in Kentish Town having missed the last tube
due
to bands overrunning at the Forum.
