Wick is one of the northernmost towns in the UK to be served by Stagecoach buses. At the other end of the spectrum, Brixham is one of the furthest south.

Amazingly enough, the 82 (Thurso to Wick) starts its daily service before 0600, and the last journey doesn't start until after midnight. And the first of these two unlikely facts is true even on Sundays!

Has something occurred upon this thread or I am dreaming. I was sure that someone made a posting of Brookwood (of Necropolis fame) in response to that of Southport to which I assumed that I had made a posting of Madingley also having an American military cemetery.....hock:

My posting was of Brookwood, but incorrectly in response to an earlier posting - I realised, changed my post to a "Hang on a minute, I'm being an idiot" or similar whilst I researched a proper link from Southport. Apologies.
