I would like to add to the chorus of thanks to Deano.

I am a regular bus user and I have made a note to avoid the 176 and 197 coming back from Penge.

(I like The 99p Store on Penge High Street and their big, but not too big, Sainsburys. Their Sainsburys, in Penge, is slightly bigger than our wonderful Sainsburys on London Road in Forest Hill. But not as daunting as the Mega-Super-Giga Sainsburys down at Bell Green. Although, that is worth a visit once a year to remind myself that having too much choice can be a bad thing!)

Now thanks to you, Deano, I can happily jump on the 176 and 197 with my bags from The 99p Store and Sainsburys and be fairly sure that I can jump off in the centre of Forest Hill without a 20 minute crawl down Dartmouth Road from the bus stop just near the library.

Oh Deano, I believe I know exactly what shop’s van you are talking about.

And I agree that parking is a problem for them.

And I agree about the people in the shop being off-hand.

I’m staggered that they are like this.

And I’m staggered that I buy from them with their decidedly un-friendly service.

It is just that they have some of the best products of their type in the area.

And it is not The Fitting Studio (i.e. The Bra shop); just in case anyone is trying to guess which shop I'm banging on about. I've never used The Fitting Studio and I don't think that they have a van either. I may need The Fitting Studio if my body does decide to grow moobs.
