They've always been fine with me, but then I don't go to the shop that
often and I usually drop in on a weekday late afternoon when it's quiet.

On another note, does anyone know of a (preferably postal) source of an
unfolded copy of the "historical" tube map? I'd quite like one framed,
but the folded version leaves ugly creases all over it.


If you have acces to a dry mounting press: lightly spray the creases
and surrounding areas with water using a very fine spray, put into a
hot press for a minute of so, creases vanish.. we used to do this
for photos on fibre paper in the old days
