I thought the station name was Cheltenham Spa....
It is but it's quite obvious as to what I'm referring to.

Wondering how we've ended up back in South Wales, we make a second attempt to move on elsewhere as we take the nine minute walk to the railway station for the 1039 Great Western Railway service 1F11 to Southampton Central, arriving there at 1304 on Sunday afternoon.

That appears to be it for the night being just out of range of other routes. We therefore return for the 06.23 Stagecoach South East service 5 for the short hop to Langney, Asda arriving at 06.28 on Monday.
