I'm fairly sure you'll find that the London not-blue badges are only
required north of the River, so if you're coming from the south and stay
south you'll be OK. Don't forget the Congestion Charge, either. You can
register for exemption of the CC but it's a slightly lengthy process.

Do double-check. No liability, etc.
