I wonder if (s)he had any success.

    Personally, that would scare the living shit out of me and I would probably never walk down Stroud Green Road again. They also seem to suffer from caps lock tourettes. Do you think they'll stand right outside the phonebox or just hang to the side to not look like the owner of the notice?

    Whoever wrote that needs some help, with a number of things.

    Wait wait wait. We all seem to have missed the obvious. There will be someone at the bus stop at 7pm every day this week. Photo competition?

    The Caps Lock Tourettes Photo Competition is the new Stroud Green Question Time.

    I liked how it didn't include any details of what either party looked like, was wearing &c - the basic stuff the London Paper equivalent always carried and which might lead to some chance of success. Whereas here, the object of these affections could read this and be genuinely unaware that they were the person the nutter had in mind.

    More importantly, who takes the bus one stop from Tesco to Finsbury Park station?

    An awful lot of very lazy people get on the bus to go one stop to the station (I can see that stop from my window), so I can only assume that a similar number of very lazy people do likewise in the opposite direction. Personally, I'd find such indolence quite a dealbreaker even in someone amazingly beautiful.

    If you can see that stop from your window, then you can take a picture.

    it could be an edgy advert for a bland hollywood romcom. 'Grocery Girl' starring Jenny Aniston. You go there at seven and somebody gives you a number that you call and you get a voice giving you a website address etc. The lack of a description means that anybody who goes supermarket shopping locally with their partner, but is curious at the prospect of being adored by a passionate caps lock user, might think it's for them. Surely those are the people who go to watch such films?


    It's obviously not this, but you know.

    Just trying to suck the magic out of the situation.

    And who shortens Wednesday to Wednes anyway? Surely you leave it in full or go all the way back to Weds? Just crazy.

    Andy - I can only see the stop the target was at, and the poster says the observer will be where he was before, the stop opposite. Which I can't see.
    Also, and crucially, I don't have a camera.

    Get the gist - couldn't read it that easily - windows a bit steamed up - presumably with condensation from the bunny being boiled in there.
    [ and now on menu at K1/Karmenz no doubt]

    I'll be up west. Do you think it might be one of us? And re. the catching-the-bus-one-stop thing: if it's there, about to leave, I'm in a rush or it's raining and I'm on a travelcard, why not?

    Agree with tosscat - if a bus is there and it means there's a chance I will be 5, rather than 15, minutes late for work I'm on it.

    However I shall now at least attempt to hide my face in shame - never considered the fact I might be judged for it.

    Duzu, you're in London. People are *secretly judging you all the time*.

    I'm confused. Is Duzu ashamed because of the catching-the-bus-one-stop thing? Or, because Duzu stuck the poster in the phone box?

    If it's raining/snowing, you're running late and the bus is there, fair enough. But there are people standing at that bus stop all the time, waiting for a bus. Travelcard or no travelcard, surely it's quicker just to walk?

    Then again, I'm always 15 minutes late for everything.

    Next time I walk by Tesco, I'm going to compare the girth of the people at both bus stops. I suspect that the average person waiting to go one stop will be larger than the average person heading in the opposite direction.
