suddenly realised i don't know where my nearest 24hr store is. I'm pretty close to Telford Avenue bus garage.

Anyone the wiser?

It was 24 hr for a short time, but was closed the last couple of times I went past. The little offy a few doors up closer to Blenheim Gardens is open all hours though, and the one on the corner opposite BWL even has a proud "alcohol served 24 hours" sign.

The Texaco at the end of my road is 24hr...but that's by the Common. I think the Tescos will be 24hrs when it opens.

There are 2 24hr shops within spitting distance of my place.

Being Stockwell, I don't suppose that helps very much.....

But it is quite convenient for me.

:cool:

Yes, but you have to be very careful to check dates on all the food. They're notorious for having out-of-date food in the fridges :mad:

That's certainly true of the little offy. They had a loaf of bread on the shelves that was two weeks past its sell by date when I went in last.

I check religiously now after I ended up walking out with sausages for the weekend fry-up that were nearly two weeks out of date

We used to live next door to it. Mountview, no mount fuck all view, but very useful for the 24 hour garage..
