Annoyingly there is a bus in four minutes, which in reality we probably could catch, but we play it safe and wait for the 0920 Stagecoach South East service 26A to Hastings (Priory Meadow), arriving there at 0958 on Saturday morning.
We take the three minute walk to Harold Place and there board the 1018 Stagecoach South East service 100 to Winchelsea (the bus stop adjacent to The New Inn on German Street) that arrives there at 1049 on Saturday morning.
With the station being too far away and the 100 being the only bus serving the area, we next board the 1149 Stagecoach South East Wave service 100 to Rye (Railway Station), arriving there at 1158 on Saturday morning.
With there being no road transport in the area, all we can do is board the 1528 Southern service 2D35 to Eastbourne, arriving there at 1543 on Saturday afternoon.
Thinking there would be more than just the Corby service by EMR, we next board the 1935 Thameslink service 9R55 to Salfords, arriving there at 2130 on Saturday evening.
Not wishing to just continue shuttling back and forth Bedfordshire on Thameslink, we instead exit the station and let a couple of hours pass before boarding the 0345 National Express service 707 to Heathrow Terminal 5, arriving there at 0520 on Sunday morning.
We take the six minute walk to James Street and board the 1823 Merseyrail service 2N47 to Wallasey Grove Road, arriving there at 1840 on Sunday evening.
We make the 5 minute 0.2 mile walk to the bus stop on Elm Street and wait for the 1938 Stagecoach Merseyside service 38A to Eastham Rake, Clifton Avenue arriving there at 2033 on Sunday.
We walk for 5 minutes to cover the 0.2 mile to the Countess Hospital stop on Liverpool Rd. There we await the 2221 Stagecoach Merseyside serivce 1, alighting at Eastham Rake (the stop on the New Chester Rd, just north of the M53) at 2258 on Sunday.
We next board the 2358 Stagecoach Merseyside & South Lancashire Gold service 1 to Birkenhead (Argyle Street/Grange Road), arriving there at 0021 in the early hours of n Monday morning.
We decide to take advantage of the overnight travel relaxation rule and take the nine minute walk to the bus station and board the 0603 Stagecoach Merseyside service 38 to West Kirby (stop A on Grange Road) that arrives there at 0645 on Monday morning.
We are aware of an issue with emails from the Forum to Microsoft-based email accounts (hotmail/outlook/live.com email addresses). This is being looked into currently, thanks for your patience meanwhile.
