Hi EDmummy


I have always travelled alone with my little boy in the buggy to Stansted on the 78 bus from opposite Peckham Rye Park(turning left from East Dulwich Rd into Peckham Rye, first bus stop) to Liverpool street and then the Stansted express (didn't want too many changes, stairs etc so it worked for us).

The bus takes about 35min and I don't mind the journey but always make sure we have plenty of time (traffic) and then the Stansted express train to Stansted 50min (the Stansted express is getting so expensive though).


If anyone knows of an easier route I would be interested in knowing it!

We've used chauffered parking - pull up outside departures, get all baby kit out, car driven away & returned at arrivals when you land. We did the sums and at about ?50 for a week it was certainly comparable with the cost of two adult returns on the stansted express. I was really surprised as I thought it would cost an ARM & a leg, but we found it a nice stress free surprise!

    • I've actually met Luke Johnson and he's actually a very amicable, witty and extremely clever man. He's also created thousands of jobs and generated millions and millions of pounds of tax revenue for the government, offering goods and hospitality that countless millions of people have enjoyed over the decades. I'm not a fan of Gail's but I'm also not a fan of people who knock down good guys that have contributed a huge amount to this country.  Anyway, French Patisseries and southern hemisphere coffee don't belong on Farmer's markets. 
    • What mandatory action would then be required of them?
    • Probably will be mandatory once Digital ID comes in.    They can then use the cameras on the tills too to bring all sorts of other useful ancillary controls, such as limiting how much alcohol you buy each week, or monitoring and limiting the carbon footprint of the food you buy (some foods now are already showing the CO2 emissions consumed in producing them).
    • At present several large retailers such as Co-op, Tesco, Waitrose, John Lewis, and Next use a cloud-based facial recognition system that gives instant alerts to the entry on the premises of known shoplifters.  Around £19 million incidents of retail theft (some with attacks on staff) occur ever year in the UK amounting in value to £2.6 Billion in value, involving 41,000 known offenders. Shoplifting adds to the retailer's costs and this is passed on eventually to honest shoppers, isn't there a case for F.R. to become mandatory at all retailers?
