For one day only, there will be some classic buses running along the 37 route around Rye Lane (Saturday the 1st October)

Good that London Transport is doing this. The old style buses were great, although I remember when the lower deck was full you had to go upstairs to the top deck. Smoking was still allowed on the top deck up until around 40 years ago (not sure about that date) but just remember sitting in a sea of smoke when I had just finished work!

Think it was only after the Kings Cross fire that smoking on buses and tubes was banned. Seems totally mad in retrospect.

      Any interest in a Barter scheme?

      By Sue · Posted

      https://www.letslinkuk.net/ I'm interested to know why the OP didn't find this sort of scheme to work, as I would have thought it was much harder to find someone to do a direct exchange with? Does anybody else have experience of a scheme like this? Happy to be persuaded!

      I personally think is a great idea Bobbly and would love if there was a section for it. I wouldn't offer free gardening under the "for sale" section as I would expect something in exchange and wouldn't expect our cat being looked after for free under the "wanted" section, as an example.

      I have fond memories of Govinda's I used to go there  back in the 90's (maybe earlier) for an affordable tasty lunch..I was wondering if its still around. Now I have to make a point of going there. Does anyone else remember a really affordable basement cafe run by the church in a street off of Golden Square? parallel to Regent Street? I also used to love the Vegetarian cafe on Neal Street in the basement (Neal Street Cafe?) and there was an inczredible inexpensive authentic Japanese resturant I use to go to with my Japanese friends (who introduced me to it) tucked away behind Long Acre where that brown brick modern building ('modern' I think it went up in the 90's!) now stands that fronts Long Acre and Neal Street..I think it was called Asakasa or something?
