It was your posting that could have obviated the matter by continuing to Deptford (Home Gardens) and I was well within my rights to use a bus service to make the journey that I made. There is nothing in the rules that forces contributors to walk when there is an available bus service.

Never said there was. Was just an interesting observation.

Equally, there is nothing in the rules that states contributors have to alight at Home Gardens as opposed to Royal Victoria Mill.
