We join the queue to urinate on the wall; however we're turned away for only wearing five types of foundation and the wrong type of tie. For the best though; some people are paying £40 for some ludicrously branded bog roll. Safe in the knowledge that the running concern will be first up against the wall when the revolution comes; we hop on the N9 at 02:02; hopping off in the altogether more Bolshevist climes (well; relatively; there's still Foxtons) of Stamford Brook bus garage at 02:23 this Thursday morning

How did you guess?! :lol: there are many services from Clapham Junction. To be honest it was either that or continue using London's complex bus network :lol:

This service departs at 2315 and arrives at the Harbour at 2334.

Either way, we do not have enough time to return to Penzance, so we set up camp and board the 0701 First Kernow service 6 to Newlyn (Bridge), arriving there at 0710 on Friday morning.
