Say please
Possibly only in the UK would a sign indicating prohibited activity say "please". Photographed at the intersection of Bristol Road South (A38) and Park Way.

Bus at Safeway superstore, Rubery (2)
Travel West Midlands 719, a Mercedes-Benz 709D with bodywork built locally by Carlyle, lays over in the car park of the former Safeway superstore in Rubery, between journeys on the 647. If memory serves, the other end of this route was somewhere in Harborne (Moor Pool rings a bell somewhere), and it served various odd roads that were not on main bus routes. In common with many, this Safeway store became a Morrisons in 2005.

Bus at Safeway superstore, Rubery (1)
Travel West Midlands 518, a Volvo B6LE/Wright Crusader then less than a year old, proceeds slowly through the car park of the former Safeway superstore in Rubery, working route 49A from Northfield via Frankley. The 49A was a shorter, more frequent (every 12 minutes if memory serves) variation of the enormously long 49, which went all the way from Northfield to Solihull; in contrast, the 49A just shuttled between Northfield and Rubery Safeway, via a different route in Frankley. In common with many, this Safeway store became a Morrisons in 2005.
