Sadly, whilst coastal areas are usually appealing, a late Sunday night in Bridlington leaves a lot to be desired, and predictably with no other buses in the area and only one more option available to us at this dark hour, we are left with no choice but the board the 2215 Northern service 2W38 to Hull, arriving there at 2300 on Sunday.
