Sorry, I was flicking between services trying to get out of the Gloucester area and didn't change the day! Struck through.

Accepting that we've been in Gloucester for a while on and off, so it would be good to get away, and using the "no more than 2 hours..." ruling, we can still walk for 4 mins (0.2 mile) to the Friar Tuck bus stop on Bristol Road but wait for the 0947 Stagecoach West service 64 to Ebley, Frome Gardens arriving there at 1021 on Sunday.

 

[Andy Pacer]

[-Colly405-]

Just in case you are wondering why Little Dock Lane is nowhere near a Dock, 'Dock' was the old name for Devonport, and this was a lane that eventually ended up there in the days of the Three Towns (Sutton, Devonport and Stonehouse) that ultimately made up Plymouth.
