Next we have to wait a little while as early morning frequencies on Saturdays are not the best, we take the 0630 Stagecoach West service 11 to Avonmouth, Farr Street arriving at 0645 on Saturday morning.

Rather than waiting an hour, or using the 10/11 again, let's board the 0705 First WoE citylines|3&4 service 3 towards Broadmead, and alight at Bristol, The Centre, stop C10 at 0734 on Saturday.

On the assumption that the same bus forms the return working back to Bangor, as there is only four minutes until the next service, we then board the 2123 Arriva Wales service 67L to Hirael (Depot), arriving there at 2148 on Saturday evening.

Salubrious....East Didsbury? :lol:

Hoping for a more interesting form of transport other than bus or train, we take the five minute walk to the tram stop and board the 2042 Metrolink Pink Line service to Shaw & Crompton, arriving there at 2144 on Sunday evening.
