According to TfL, Hounslow to Heathrow is 30 mins so we would have arrived on Thursday afternoon at 17:17. However your move is still valid and that ambiguity was my fault.

I think I will stop playing from my phone. The reason I keep making incomplete postings is that there is a glitch with the touchscreen which occasionally causes it to think I have pressed a button when I haven't. I'm really sorry about that!

16:17 it would be, but after 4 o'clock it takes a bit longer, and bustimes.org confirms its 16:24.

...Unlike in this delightful village, where the next bus isn't until Wednesday morning. I can't seem to find any other modes of transport here either, so it looks like we're going to have to camp out in the field next to the church and beg the vicar for food and water! At least it's warm this time of year...

...Much counting of sheep later...

When Wednesday dawns, we return to the bus stop, cold, damp, hungry but well rested to board the 09:04 Z & S Transport service 112 to Brill, The Square, arriving at 09:35 Wednesday morning.

Sorry for stranding the game for a few days people!
