Coverage of the South of England Show was great (June 8).

It was a pity, therefore, that the Agricultural Society couldn't lay on special buses for the folk who do not have cars, as in other years.

On Saturday, when I took my young grandson to the show, we had to rely on the Metro service bus, which runs hourly through Ardingly.

The queues at Haywards Heath were so long the bus couldn't take all.

People had travelled in by train to catch buses and at no time prior to the show was there any publicity to tell us the service was not being honoured this year.

Perhaps next year, when the show will have a lower profile, someone may think of its loyal "citizens" and return to the consideration of special buses.
