We have just under an hour to take a stroll along the seafront and grab some fish and chips (and maybe squeeze in a cheeky ice cream) before boarding the 1345 Stagecoach in Lincolnshire Humber Flyer 1 service to Hull (Paragon Interchange), arriving there at 1537 on Saturday afternoon.

We note that, unlike on Fridays, there is now the unfortunate matter of a 2-hour wait until we can board the 2018 EYMS service 75 to Thorngumbald (Royal Mail) that arrives there at 2033 on Saturday evening.

You're looking at the weekday timetable Paul; that extra service runs on a Saturday too :)

Well noticed, I thought there was a "Friday-only" symbol shown on the timetable that I referred to.

My last posting is now "struck-through" in readiness for another contestant to carry on from Ottringham....or is that Otteringham ?

You haven't got to strike through; you can just continue on the 1918 service instead, if you wish?

You need to have no worries on that score as the official connection time at Hull Paragon station is indeed 5 minutes...:D

Taking the short 4 minute walk to the bus stop on New Walkergate, we next board the 2330 EYMS service X47 to Hull (Ferensway) that arrives there at 0002 on Sunday morning.
