If you make a hole in the roof, you can dangle it and see the big logo underneath - they missed an opportunity. Or, better, two holes through the roof (or windows) to avoid a scary rotating effect that could damage the brand (but inspire a disaster movie).

The make your own card car reminded me of the Weetabix packets of the 1950s when they had a printed Weetabix lorry to cut out and glue together. Great fun.

Build a London bus? That must be where our Prime Minister picked up his second favourite hobby.

Re 1), I once took my own bike (not hired) on the Dangleway. It was indeed highly practical and I was grateful that the crossing existed at this location. But as 2) suggests it's on the verge of overcrowding, I'm reluctant to use the final trip on my 4-year-old 10-ride pass... These passes formally expire after a year, but staff have been accommodating so far.

They have money for craft activities, but no money for simple things that actually improve Transport in London, like bus maps... :(

Aside from the Pilot Hotel and a nice gasometer skeleton to view, I found nothing to do in North Greenwich.
Before our last Dangleway journey I was looking online at the price of options, and don't quote me, but I think we could have been served a glass of champagne each for the price of £25. Mind, that did include the price of the trip. As we did the time before, we used our Oyster cards.

Clogging up the cable car with hire bikes shouldn't be necessary. If the docking stations were better placed you could drop off a bike on one side and pick up another when you get off.

Taking a Santander bike on the Dangleway will pretty much guarantee a £2 per 30 mins time charge (result!) as you would not be likely to go from start dock to destination dock in initial 30 mins.
Dangleway model.. Make your own Dangleway Xmas lights from a basic LED light string.

A delicious opening two sentences! And there can never be too much talk about the Dangleway.

"A brief dangle during a day trip to London"? Very Frankie Howerd!

Linking 1 and 4, today we have a @TfL tweet about the Dangleway craft pack. It has 5 likes.
Of this month's 20 tweets so far, 40% have been about brands.

I suspect the dangleway *feels* extra busy partly because of the no-cabin-sharing policy.
Also they slowed it down a few years ago to make it more of a tourist experience than transportation service.
It certainly feels to me like TfL continues to operate it only because it generates net income with the sponsorship revenue.

Your influence continues to spread far and wide...from todays Guarniad:
"Nonetheless, the “dangleway” is set to survive...At one point, however, it was revealed to be used by only four regular commuters, freedom of information requests showed."
