Walk to station
4:14pm Tuesday 10th July 2001
People who park at bus stops don't realise how selfish they're being. I'm referring to the one at the bottom of Crescent West opposite Hadley Wood station.
They can't read the sign on the glass pane on the shelter: "Mrs Smith can't catch the bus if you park here".
Also, why are more people not walking to the station? Don't they like exercise? Day in and day out there are 100-plus cars at the lower end of the Crescent East and West.
