Indeed so, it was with the previous posting being run by service 21 operated by First Buses of Somerset that led me astray....

Howsoever, I did think that giving my posting an arrival point of Weston-super-Mare (Interchange) that this would lead to a succession of onward journeys and not one that was said to be leading to a dead end causing a back-track......Still, what is good for the goose is also good for the gander, so I will take this as a precedent to do the same on postings in future.
