The lead-up to the 48 hour London tube strike, which starts on Tuesday evening, has been characterised by an air of hysteria in some quarters. We've seen accusations of the city being held to ransom, and doom-laden predictions of how the city will cope with only a partially functioning transport network. And, more helpfully, some survival tips.
Whether you feel the blame lies with recalcitrant union leaders or a mayor's failure to live up to his election pledges, we'd like you to help us get a flavour of London as the strike unfolds. Have your journeys been hellish, or have you taken the opportunity to walk, cycle, or even work from home? Share your stories and images with us via GuardianWitness, and we will feature them in our coverage over the next few days.
