Sadly too far away from the 38 which is the only other bus running at this hour and trains are also limited too, so we continue on the 2232 Northern service 2H87 to Manchester Piccadilly, arriving there at 2319 on Friday.

I could have put money on that 2337 Manchester to Holyhead coming into play! :D

We next board the 0614 Transport for Wales service 1V91 to Hereford, arriving there at 0900 on Saturday.

Sorry, realised that doesn't run on a Saturday! Bear with.

We next board the 0633 Avanti West Coast service 1K25 to London Euston, arriving there at 0935 on Saturday.
