Re: Travelling in London
Walk north on Buckingham Palace Road to Victoria station & get the train. It's about a 15 minute train ride.
Transport for London journey planner is here if you want to look up times...

I do that journey each week, you want either platform 17 or 18, the train I get from Victoria to Hayward's Heath, which stops at Clapham Junction then East Croydon leaves said platform at 47 minuets and 17 minuets past the hour and takes just under 15 mins.

It would probably take over an hour getting to Victoria by car even though its only about ten miles, it really is simple on the train, I mean I do it  and quick too.
