For me the 176 diversion was a pleasant surprise. Fell asleep on the bus and when I woke up it was traveling off route nearer to my final destination. Buses are obliged to stop at all bus stops on diversion when requested so that saved me a long walk :).

This is very useful to know. Would be interested to learn where it is published, although I don't fancy my chances when quoting chapter and verse to a grumpy driver.

Can't find it written in stone but as an ex bus driver I remember always being instructed to treat all bus stops on diversion as request stops. Yeah there are a few seemingly grumpy drivers but don't judge till you've done it yourself, 10 to 12 hour duties some of them in shift patterns, for a bunch of years.

A proportion if any profession are grumpy some of time. I was an often grumpy software person.

I wouldn't risk the possibility of ending up at plough when i wanted goose green (1st stop on diversion)

    • Generally speaking, some medium size market towns and lesser cities always seem more  prone to random violence and aggro generally than anywhere I’ve been in London 
    • Familiarity is important, I lived near Brixton in the old days and was fairly comfortable, but for many years avoided Peckham.  That has reversed in the last 15 years.   I recall around Dalston and the A10 and burned out cars.  Now super trendy. Pub violence has largely gone but that was groups of men getting drunk on Saturday night and brawling.  Similarly little football violence, East Dulwich/West Peckham was edgy last century.
    • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️   Rod comes highly recommended. He recently completed a challenging job in my garden, fox-proofing an outhouse using a large amount of hardcore and slate. The work involved a great deal of effort, but Rod handled it with professionalism and care from start to finish.   He specialises in working with stone, and it really shows in the quality of his work. He is also an incredibly hard worker, tackling the project with determination and skill. Throughout, he was responsive and reliable, always keeping me updated and communicating clearly.   I really appreciated the practical advice he offered along the way, which showed both his experience and his commitment to doing the job properly. On top of all that, his pricing was very reasonable, and he was an absolute pleasure to deal with.   If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, hardworking, and knowledgeable, Rod is an excellent choice. His number is 07739180197
