There is an arrival at 0856 in Rayleigh and then the next is 0926, I think the connection at Southend would give sufficient time to catch the 0804 which would be the 0856 arrival.

Sorry, I forgot we were on Saturday and looked at the weekday timetable but the 0856 arrival into Rayleigh is the 0802 from the Travel Centre in Southend, and the Ilfracombe Avenue stop is 12 minutes before that so that would be 0750, which is too early as we didn't arrive at Southend East until 0757 so we'll have to get the 0820 from Ilfracombe Avenue (0832 from the Travel Centre), arriving at 0926 into Rayleigh.

No probs - they are running the same times Mon-Sat during Covid TTs anyway

Assuming this is correct, we now board the 09:58 Greater Anglia service 2K20 to Rochford, arriving at 10:06 Saturday morning.

Here we board the 12:17 Arriva Herts and Essex service 7 to Great Wakering, o/s Church, arriving at 12:50 Saturday afternoon.

Possibly, I'm not totally sure what timetable this is running...

Sorry, I've mixed up my arrival times. We actually arrived at 1217 at Southend and not 1207, so that service is the one we've just got off. So subsequently that move is invalid. Next service isn't for another hour yet.

I will edit my move.

Sorry, took me a very long time to work out the timings on the 9! :lol:

I would take an overnight break and return for the 19 bus in the morning, but the first service isn't until 8.45 on a Sunday, so we may as well continue on the 9 as we board the 0128 National Express West Midlands Platinum service 9 to Birmingham (St Vincent Street), arriving there at 0146 in the early hours of Sunday morning.

No rail services or any other bus services for the time being, so we must wait patiently for the 0709 National Express West Midlands Platinum service 87 to Dudley (Bus Station), arriving there at 0733 on Sunday morning.
