A couple of observations:

We change at Euston for the 18:44 London Overground service to South Hampstead arriving at 18:49 on Thursday evening.
We arrived at Euston at 1835 but the minimum connection time is fifteen minutes, therefore we can't travel until any train from 1850 onwards.

We walk 15 minutes to Shepherds' Bush Station and take the 20:00 London Overground service to Imperial Wharf, arriving at 20:07 on Thursday evening.
We are only permitted to walk a maximum of around 0.5 miles, which is usually about 12 minutes walk. I think White City bus station to Shepherds Bush station is a tad far.

We change at Weybridge for the 22:11 SWR service to Fleet arriving at 22:38 on Thursday evening.
The minimum connection time at Weybridge is five minutes, and as we arrived at 2208 this would void the use of the 2211 departure.

My mistake.
