A typical commuter-belt part of north-west England
That service only runs on a Sunday.
Thought such a good connection was too good to true. That posting now resides in "struck-through land"..... :oops: .... I will try again....

We next board the 1219 Stagecoach Bluebird service 6 to Old Hilton Hospital on Edinburgh Road that arrives there at 1254 on Tuesday.

Seeking an alternative region away from the Highlands, we next take the 5 minute walk to the bus station and board the 1315 Flixbus service 094 to Edinburgh (Bus Station), arriving there at 1725 on Tuesday.

And then in that case we can continue with the 1335 Scottish Citylink service M90 to Edinburgh (Bus Station), still arriving there at 1725 on Tuesday.

In theory all of that would have been avoided had the updated posting on #46505 been made a new one as opposed to edited....

Well sadly that is it, even though the railway line goes right through this village we remain stuck here for the rest of the day, so we return in the morning for the 0654 Borders Buses service 253 to Haddington (High Street), arriving there at 0744 on Wednesday.
