It does seem that my computer had frozen and that I had missed that intermediate posting.

What now happens to all the postings that have been made since then?
Well I'm just retracing our steps now:

For Post #37533 there's a 1738 Stagecoach S5 to Bicester arriving at 1818.

For Post #37534 there's a 1900 Stagecoach X5 to Bedford arriving at 2100.

Unfortunately there is then no service on the 44 to Maulden (Post #37535).

Basically, all moves up to Post #37535 will work, but I think we'll have to return to Bedford for 2100.

That seems logical. I have now struck through the posting #37535 that is mentioned above (and also posting #37537)

From the advice given above, we are now at Bedford (Bus Station) at 2100 on Friday evening.
