    Oh dear, you did not have time to crack the strike-day codes! The Underground is usually on strike on different days to the national rail services so you could have returned to Chiswick Park (on top of a grocery store) up until midnight.. One can reach the District Line from Canary Wharf by DLR to Bank then walk to Monument by pedestrian tunnel,, by Jubilee Line to Westminster or by Elizabeth Line to Ealing Broadway and then back to Chiswick Park. There would be an extra 10 minute walk from Chiswick Park.
