Bearing in mind the 15 minute connection time here, we take the 1725 Southern service to Epsom arriving there at 1804 on Tuesday.

No buses from here this late and not much else in the way of services other than back towards Reading, so we board the 2017 Great Western Railway service 2V02 to Wokingham, arriving there at 2022 on Tuesday evening.

Avoiding the usual bash on the Brighton and Hove fleet, we instead board the 1530 Southern service 1N22 to Swanwick, arriving there at 1702 on Wednesday afternoon.

Good to have to back with us (even if it is only temporary!) @Xenophon PCDGS

Next we head out to the eastbound station bus stop on Duncan Rd (2 min) where we board the 1726 First Portsmouth, Fareham & Gosport service 28, from which we alight at Fareham (Station Roundabout, stop S) at 1800 on Wednesday.

It will be radio silence from me now until late Sunday / early Monday - I'm having an off-grid weekend 8-)

I will only be participating infrequently in future and then only on train-based postings, as bus, ferry and tram postings used to catch me out, causing the thread to be disrupted.

Some years ago, I was more adventurous (and more precise with my postings), but as a certain long-term regular on here would be aware, that was in the good old days of "Lybster Omnibus Syndrome" and "Bristol, Bath and the Back of Beyond"...;)

Agree, good to see you Paul. I too am put off by bus moves in unfamiliar places, so tend to be more of an observer these days.

We take the short walk from there into the railway station and have plenty of time in hand to board the 1818 South Western Railway service to Fratton that arrives there at 1837 on Wednesday evening.

Despite what I said in an earlier posting, I will bite the bullet and make a bus posting in the hope that I do not disrupt the thread.......

We go to stance C and there board the 2334 First West of England Citylines service 73 to Montpelier (Nine Tree Hill) that arrives there at 0018 on Thursday morning.
