Some guide notes for new contestants.

Please be careful to note the time of arrival of the previous posting before making a following posting. Two recent examples are as follows:-

Posting # 8207
This shows a 1901 departure, but the previous posting arrived at 1922.

Posting # 8209
This shows a 2212 departure, but the previous posting arrived at 2225.

This is for information purposes only and is not to hold the quiz up from the state it has reached since then.

Sorry, but I thought that only 24 minutes between arrival and departure on a service 71 was not all that bad, considering.

No it isn't, and it's no issue, but I just thought I'd let you know

We take a ten minute walk to the bus stop on Queens Avenue and board the 1932 Wessex Connect service 16 to Stoke Bishop (Transport Hub) that arrives there at 1947 on Sunday evening.

Guys I'm so sorry, I've made an error with the W1. That service is a weekday service.

Instead, let's take, from Bristol bus station, the 2300 First in Bristol, Bath and The West service 39 to Saltford (Tyning Road), arriving there at 2330 on Sunday evening.

We cannot board the next service to Bath as there is only a four minute connection rather than the five minute connection requirement, so we wait until we can board the 0030 First in Bristol, Bath and the West service 39 to Bath bus station that arrives there at 0044 on Monday morning.
