We depart at 1343 on Cotswold Green service 65A. We alight at Miserden (Carpenters Arms) at 1416 on Saturday.

Crikey this is a real drama here as there isn't a bus for five days!! And this is fairly local to me too and I didn't know this existed.

We wait painfully until Thursday (in reality we never would but for the sake of the game we will!) and board the 1327 Cotswold Green service 228 to Painswick (Rugby Club), arriving there at 1354 on Thursday.

A typical commuter-belt part of north-west England
Getting to the stage in these Cardiff Bus areas where walking seems just as much the travel part as the bus ride.... :(

Bringing back bus travel without the need for a preliminary walk, we next board the 0942 Cardiff Bus service 49 to Cardiff (Castle Street) that arrives there at 1011 on Friday.
