We don't often agree, Rich, but I'm with you on this one.
My favourite pedestrian gripes: Groups of stationary people blocking pavements, groups of people walking slowly along pavements and blocking it, pairs of people walking and looking at each other not the oncoming traffic, people walking while looking at their phones.
OR OR OR - people in the supermarket isle with their shopping trolley who suddenly stop in the middle of one of the main thoroughfare isles (the ones that link all the other isles). This causes tailbacks of people wanting to get past. MOVE TO ONE ****ING SIDE! Every time it happens I swear to God that I'll just go through them with my trolley next time.
Of course what happens in reality is I tut quietly and negotiate a difficult route around them.
I walked from London Bridge to your Epsom the other weekend along the route of the old Roman Stane Street (basically the A24). Got a bus within a minute of arriving in the town centre back to Morden Tube thus saving the whole mainline rail fare back into town minus £1.50
Ewell looks a nice place.
