Are you serious? Where?

I've never known a bus driver to be happy with a note, the time I've
spent in the past popping into newsagents to get coinage

At Hammersmith bus station at around 3.30am on the N10.

At Trafalgar square waiting for the N52 (before the machines came in)

They're the only times I have tried and both were a success
