RESUME this is valid:

Noting the next part of our journey will be made by Rail Replacement bus which departs at 07:00, so due to the minimum interchange time, we wait and board the 07:30 rail replacement bus arriving in Shenfield arriving there at 08:09 Sunday Morning

It's not up to you to call RESUME, you don't run this game. As it stands, my move from Liverpool Street to Shenfield was void as this is also a rail replacement bus.

The last valid post left us at Liverpool Street at 06:15 on Sunday. This is where the game will RESUME from.

You made the last valid move to Liverpool Street so you can't post that.

So, we are at London Liverpool Street on Sunday morning at 0615.

Therefore, I shall continue on First Centrewest route 23 to Ladbroke Grove (Sainsbury's), depart Liverpool Street at 0630 and arriving there at 0712 on Sunday morning. Not that Sainsbury's will be open at that time on a Sunday, but just to be interesting!

I have that magic touch Paul ;)

Your excellently timed journey means that we can exit Seven Sisters station and board the last 76 bus of the day operated by Arriva London. We leave Seven Sisters at exactly midnight and head to Waterloo Station, arriving there at 0038 in the very early blinks of Monday morning as we start a fresh new week.

Not as bad as Lobster ;)
