Underground love

An internal email to TfL staff:

Has someone on the Tube ever caught your eye? Did you take a chance on love and ask them out for a date? Did Cupid's arrow strike and stick? If you've found love on one of the London Underground lines, or know someone who has, then the Press Office would love to hear about it!

Employees are urged to take their chance "to share your love story with a local or community newspaper." Is this what we call "working with the media"? Is it Valentine's Day soon, or something?

Update, 09:52 Just had TfL press office on the phone. Would I be so kind as to post an email link so that readers of this blog too can share their tales of Underground romance with them? As it happens, I would. Kindly provide TfL with contact details, name of your favourite Barry White song and so on. Kindly provide this blog too with your stories if you so desire. Kiss, kiss.
