We take advantage of the overnight ruling, and then walk the 0.3 mile to Braintree Bus Interchange. We depart at 0633 on Hedingham & Chambers service 89X, from which we alight at Sudbury Bus Station at 0712 on Thursday.
We next board the 0925 Chambers service 753 to Long Melford (the bus stop opposite the Post Office on Hall Street) that arrives there at 1017 on Thursday morning.
Only option we've got here is to return back to Bury St Edmunds or Sudbury, so we opt for the latter and board the 1049 Chambers Boomerang service 750 to Sudbury (Bus Station), arriving there at 1101 on Thursday morning.
Not really wanting to head back to Long Melford, Sudbury or Bury, and still within the "2 hour" ruling, we leave here on the 1347 Chambers service 374, alighting at Clare (Westfield) at 1357 on Thursday, where I believe we can escape these villages...
Other than returning on the 1, we can only really take Stagecoach East Citi service 3, which we do at 1740. We alight at Cambridge Railway Station at 1755 on Thursday.
We make the 8 minute 0.4 mile walk to the Kenilworth Shops bus stop and wait for the 2125 National Express Coventry service to Leamington Spa, Crown Hotel arriving at 2139 on Thursday.
We are just in time to exit the station onto Adderley Road itself and board the 2332 National Express West Midlands Inner Circle service 8C to Jewellery Quarter Station, arriving there at 0003 in the early hours of Friday morning.
We next walk to the Parkway Roundabout stop (5 min / 0.2 mile) and (taking advantage of the overnight rule) we board the 0541 journey on service 11. We alight at Tipton (High St) at 0557 on Friday.
