*Note - I confess that this service doesn't seem to start running until 5th April, but in current circumstances a little flexibility might be allowed! I really enjoyed the trip via Staindrop and Barnard Castle.

Fine by me I'm all for bizarre and interseting bus journeys!!

I was under the impression that we are ignoring the virus and carrying on as its fictional? But, I'm not gonna hold us up! also how did you enjoy the journey via those two settlements if the service doesn't start until 5th April?

I wondered where you had gone!

Would anybody object if we had a 4 minute wait here? For the 1307 Northern service 2H65 to Shipley, arriving there at 1449? It is Sunday and we're not exactly at London Waterloo or Manchester Piccadilly now are we
