A typical commuter-belt part of north-west England
Carmarthen Junction

I am having to set off no later than 0730 this morning, as it takes no less than three buses from Heald Green to reach Salford Royal Hospital where I have an 0945 appointment with a consultant, then followed by "testing"... whatsoever that implies.

With luck, I will be home in time for my evening meal.

That's an early departure, especially when bus passes aren't usually valid until later in the morning

The Overhead Line Damage in the Manchester Piccadilly area yesterday eliminates the use of trains for any part of the journey
