quote Marble Arch may have to give way for a bus station

Might be a blessing for the arch. Its in a lousy location right now


It's not so much that the arch is in a lousy location as that Cumberland
Gate is in a lousy location!

and since its not in its original location anyway a precedent has already
been set. Perhaps if it is moved the area might revert to its old name of
Tyburn , who knows!


That would be nice. I am looking for similar schemes to bring the name
Ossulstone back into common use ...

I assume you mean 'word' here, although now you mention it, perhaps
campaigning to have the first British-discovered exoplanet named
Ossulstone might be a better and/or yet more crackpot plan ...

on the DDA-compliant destination screens of buses on - say - the
159.......

Be even funnier if it was the destination of the 100. ;-)


Have to confess that my lack of knowledge of buses means this joke is
completely lost on me :'(.
