Does anyone have any high contacts within London Transport? We need to rent a tube and need a price on this.

[Marufoo]

Hello, I am a mediatior for a affluent and powerful arab family who want to rent a tube train for a few hours when they arrive in may, does anyone know whether this can be arranged? It will be for a party for 500 people and for 3 hours and they are willing to rent this after the tube has stopped when the tube line has shut and will pay a very big handsome wage to any station attendants, the tube driver and everyone else involved although they will have their own security team with them. as well as very large donations to charities of london transports choice.
The obvious route would be to ask lt themselves but my secretary thought that asking here may be a better idea considering that someone may have a friend or relative who could help. The conditions would be that 1-They will be serving alcohol and food. 2- That a team from saudi would be able to decorate the tube with their own decor prior to the family embarking on their journey. 3-No camera's allowed to photograph or video them. 4-A legal waiver signed by all involved not to talk to the media in any way shape or form about the family in question and their party of friends and relatives. 5-The tubes windows will be temporarily blackened out to allow privacy. 6-The tube must me brand new, clean and preferably the Jubilee line, but this can be negotiated.
My people need an answer by 4pm today so please any help will be welcome.
Thank you for your help.
Mr Marufoo.

Anyone going to own up to being Mr Marufoo's secretary?

[DTCwordfan]

Not me - I see I am being impersonated though.....hee hee.

Terribly sorry old boy but the spare rolling stock is being held back for the state visit of A N Otherdespot perhaps one would like to try the Newcastle Metro as an alternative... folk are friendly and the beer is I believe adequate

I can arrange this, but I need in advance your bank details including account number, sort code, password, pin number, and membership number.
I look forward to receiving these within the hour, and your booking will then be made.
Honest.

[DTCwordfan]

Can you arrange a rendition too, Mosaic? Gromit would be most impressed.

Haaa! Got to laugh, haven't you! Where on earth do some people get it from? :o))))

Hello again, I've just got off the phone talking to Leon Daniels md of lt and unfortunately it's not a money issue but health&safety and moral issue and it's 100% no. The reasoning behind this is the tube to our people is a fertility symbol and one of the family, fatima has been trying for a child for 15 years with the best treatments and doctors money could buy, but nothing until last month when she found she was pregnant hence the want of a party on the tube.
Edit: I've just had a delightful phonecall just now and we have achieved the unachievable, we have managed to rent a Boeing 747 for this party and as the plane was being refurbished we can temporarily have the decor,seats and bars to our specifications which is wonderful. Thank you all for your help and for making me smile, god bless you on this beautiful friday and as I like you and this site I will be frequenting this site when I have time.
Goodbye all.
Mr Marufoo.

What a load of tosh!

[rowanwitch]

Thank you Mr Marafoo... and best wishes to Fatima....

Not Virgin Airways, I pressume.

[Kiki-frog]

No, thank YOU, Mr Marufoo, for making me laugh so much. Excellent news about Fatima - no problem with her tubes then

[Mamyalynne]

I love a happy ending.

[rowanwitch]

Won't be El -Al that's for sure...Maybe Emirates....

[sandyRoe]

How about renting this? It's a tube, of sorts, and it's underground

Sorry ^ presume

[DTCwordfan]

well what a good bit of light hearted fun,who ever he is.....

And Prince Andrew....well, perhaps he could give Fatima the once-over. After all his sis-in-law was the first to go with a Muslim....Allah bless the Grocer of Knightsbridge and the Fuggin Duke of Edinborg, Fayed's moniker for him according to P-Eye.
