Bought 4 chocolate puddings, berry yoghurt, grapes, a tomato, an onion, a bunch of green onions, chicken mince meat, a lavash, a can of mutabbal (eggplant mezze), a pouch of paprika, a box of cucumbers, a stick of butter, some string cheese, a fruit drink, some sour cream, an iced tea, a bottle of water, some vermicelli, a custard bun and some fruit gummies.
I've got a talent for a Glaswegian accent
Ordered it in a grill shop called Tapaka, near Barekamutyun metro. The cheese pull was insane on this thing.
I especially love BX Electroliners
I hope it gets electrified soon since the state of the EHs in NX is so worn-out
Couldn't even be arsed to try this one to be fair.
- Idea: Foots Cray bus garage (RX)
- Operator: Metroline Travel Ltd
- Capacity: ~105 buses
- Routes it could serve: 51 (PVR - 18), 160 (PVR - 13), 233 (PVR - 7), 286 (new PVR - back to 14, please), 321 (PVR - 16), 335 (new PVR - 13, route extended to Sidcup via Sidcup Road, Mottingham and New Eltham), making total PVR of the garage 81 + adding some reserve vehicles, this would be around 91.
- List of routes: 51, 160, 233, 286, 321, 335, 660
- Reasons: since Morden Wharf (MG) garage is about to be substituted with Thamesmead (TD) garage, it would obviously be less convenient for such routes as 51 and especially 286 (deadrun mileage from Greenwich to Thamesmead isn't really convenient).
Route adjustments to be made:
- New Cross bus garage will serve my previously proposed new route 420 (New Cross Gate - Chislehurst, via Lewisham, Hither Green, Sidcup Road, Mottingham and William Barefoot Drive) instead of 321.
- Bus 335 will be rerouted as an express along A2 up until Shooters Hill Road and then will continue to Kidbrooke Park Road with a detour to Kidbrooke Village (it will NOT terminate at Wingfield School, instead - some early-morning and mid-afternoon workings on the route will serve it). Then - it continues on Sidcup Road up until New Eltham and then - to Sidcup.
Both are actually sound
1: Updated bus no. 335 (North Greenwich - Sidcup Station)
- Route: North Greenwich - Millennium Village - IKEA - skips Royal Standard along A2 - Shooters Hill Road/Kidbrooke Park Road - Kidbrooke Park Road - Kidbrooke Station - Kidbrooke Village - Sutcliffe Park - Sidcup Road - Mottingham - Southwood Road - New Eltham - Longlands - Main Road - Station Road - Sidcup Station
- Length: 15 km
- Garage: still Dartford (DT)
- New PVR: 13
- Actions: equip Sidcup Road with new bus stops, reroute 335 away from Wingfield School, deck B16 in exchange (double deckers are quite common on this route)
- Why so: there is only service between Kidbrooke and Sidcup (286), and it goes via Eltham and Avery Hill, not stepping into Kidbrooke Village, despite Kidbrooke Park Road literally turning into Sidcup Road after crossing Eltham Road. Let alone no service between North Greenwich and Sidcup. Many southeastern bus routes are quite long themselves. Besides, the route 335 was meant to be express initially.
2: New route 420 (New Cross Gate (Sainsbury’s) - Chislehurst War Memorial)
- Route: New Cross Gate - Lewisham Way - Lewisham Station - Lewisham Station - Lewisham Centre - Hither Green Lane - St Mildred’s Road - Westhorne Avenue - Sidcup Road (finally, a bus route that serves this road!) - Mottingham Station - Fiveways - William Barefoot Drive - White Horse Hill - Red Hill - Chislehurst
- Length: 14 km
- Most likely garages: Catford (TL) or New Cross (NX)
- Likely PVR: 12
- Why so: only route to serve between Lewisham and Chislehurst is 273, and it’s an extremely convoluted hail & ride route served by low-frequency single door single deckers. Hither Green Lane and William Barefoot Drive are currently only served by 181/225 and 314 respectively, which are all single-deck routes. Sidcup Road hasn’t got any bus service despite it only turning into an expressway after Fiveways Junction. It’s even got pedestrian crossings, so why not equipping it with some bus stops along it?
3: New route 457 (Brixton - Elmers End)
- Route: Brixton - Brixton Hill - Streatham Hill Station - Leigham Court Road (!!!) - Crown Point - Beulah Hill - South Norwood Hill - Norwood Junction - Portland Road - Long Lane - Elmers End
- Length: 13 km
- Most likely garage: Norwood (N)
- Likely PVR: 14
- Purpose: add a missing connection, relieve the route 417 (since it gets crowded on Leigham Court Road), give Brixton and Norwood Junction another connection than just 196
I'm the same Russian guy before currently doing my research on accents from different videos.
Long story short: it's about "like that" turning into something akin to "la'a" (don't know how to write it) in quick speech. I have particularly noticed this feature in Limmy's Show and some prison podcasts.
First route: 459 (Lewisham Station - Streatham Hill, Telford Avenue)
- Most likely allocation: Brixton (BN)
- Other possible allocations: Norwood (N), Catford (TL)
- Length: ~15 km
- Likely PVR: 18
- Numbering: derived from 159
- Route: Lewisham - Catford - Perry Hill - Bell Green - Sydenham - Westwood Hill - Crystal Palace - Upper Norwood - Streatham Common - Streatham Station - Streatham Hill
- Reasons why I suggested: very difficult link between Lewisham and Streatham, taking pressure off 75, no bus that connects Crystal Palace and Streatham going straight along Streatham Common North - Crown Lane - Crown Dale - Central Hill.
Next bus route: 477 (Liverpool Street - Woolwich)
- Most likely allocations: Thamesmead (TD) or Plumstead (PD)
- Length: 16 km
- Most likely PVR: 22
- Purpose: filling service gaps, taking pressure off such routes as 1 (along Southwark Park Road), 47 (along Liverpool Street/London Bridge and Surrey Quays/Evelyn Street) and 177 (from Greenwich to Woolwich), and doubling N1 at daytime at a lion's share.
- Numbering: portmanteau of 47 and 177
- Route: Liverpool Street - Monument - London Bridge - Borough - Long Lane - Grange Road - Southwark Park Road - Galleywall Road - Rotherhithe New Road (Surrey Quays) - Evelyn Street - Creek Road - Greenwich (Cutty Sark) - Trafalgar Road - Woolwich Road - Woolwich Arsenal
- And the question is: why are Evelyn Street and Creek Road served by more night buses (N1, 47, 188, N199) than day buses (47, 188, 199) despite not being a central road? That's exactly why 477 is introduced - it mostly parallels N1 from Grange Road all the way to Woolwich.
Also, it's the only daytime route to serve Surrey Quays... but not serve Canada Water.
Got this Greek can off TikTok following other's recommendation.
It tastes a lot like cranberry/lingonberry sort of thingy. 7,5/10. It's sound, but doesn't beat Ultra Blue, Ultra Blue Hawaii or Ultra Paradise.
Haven't tried it yet (since I don't drink Monsters after 16:00) - will try it tomorrow and share my thoughts!
I'm literally chuffed to bits, since this can is long discontinued here!
(difficulty - a bit more advanced)
