But 800 meters isn't an especially long walk, even with purchases...was it a particularly bad walk?
From Longwood, it also looks like about a kilometre down to King along Weber. Crummy walk I'd imagine, but depending on your walking speed not too terrible to get to the more frequent 7.
15 minutes is nothing for me, too. From time to time I'll walk to Vincenzo's from my office in downtown Kitchener, about 30 minutes excluding road closures.
You can get from Longwood to King in about 10 minutes if you walk through the Waterloo Inn parking lot. I don't know where the transit stops are on King, though.
