Here's the tally...
Totteridge & Whetstone tube entrance (street level) to Northern Line platform (southbound): down 32 steps.
Exchange at King's Cross from Northern Line (Bank branch) to Piccadilly Line (westbound) via broken escalator: up 32 steps.
Exit from Earl’s Court station to street level – lift to “ticket hall level”, so no steps, then up 8 steps to the way out.
Entrance from pavement to Tesco on A4 to buy lunch: up 5 steps.
Exit from Tesco to pavement to head for office: up 6 steps.
Going from pavement to business area: down 29 steps to security door, then up 10 steps to where the offices start.
