Sorry, didn't realise Dan's move wasn't valid...it followed chronologically so I didn't look any further!

We appear to be stuck here overnight, so we find a hay barn to sleep in before returning on the 06:40 Arriva Beds & Bucks service 300 to Tattenhoe Park, Priory Rise School, arriving at 07:41 Thursday morning.

That is now four consecutive uses of the S1 service. Is that a record for this quiz?

No, in the Highlands when we're stuck on those piddly islands for weeks on end we have to use the same service for almost a week because some of us insist on stopping in every single hamlet to be found. :lol:

Heading back to the principle city along this route to offer further onward connections if other players wish to utilise a different service, we then board the 2231 Stagecoach Oxfordshire Gold service S1 to Oxford (Gloucester Green Bus Station), arriving there at 2317 on Thursday evening.
