There seems to have been a time warp on the District Line - we jumped from Monday at Earl's Court to Friday at Paddington! Perhaps Dr Who has landed at Bayswater! Anyway it seems to be still Monday on the main line station and we are keen to get to the west so we have a pint in the Mad Bishop & Bear while we wait for the 16:06 Great Western service 1C88 to Plymouth where we arrive at 19:20 on Monday evening.

Oh joy! A night out in the suburbs of Swindon. After kipping down in somebody's garden shed, we wait for the only choice of bus at this time in the morning, the 06:35 Swindon Bus Company service 19A back to Bridgemead (Sainsburys) where we arrive at 06:54 on Tuesday morning.

It looks to be a 2 minute walk to the bus station, so we head there and await Southern Vectis service 7 at 1655, alighting at Carisbrooke (High St) at 1722 on Tuesday.

We have only one option here at this time of day, and that is to take the Southern Vectis service 7. We therefore board it at 1840, alighting at Newport (Bus Station) at 1935 on Tuesday.
