Always remember to end your postings with the "quiz day" that is currently running


Refreshed by a good nights sleep, absorbing the educational ambiance of our surroundings, we are up very early and in good time to return to the bus stop on the campus where we last disembarked and we are in good time to catch the first bus of the day, the 0650 Oxford Bus Company service U1 to Headington (Headington Shops) that arrives there at 0730 on Thursday morning

After that succession of bus journeys, our current location affords the opportunity for a change of mode of travel, so we take the short walk to the Terminal 1-2-3 London Underground station and board the 1748 Piccadilly Line service to South Kensington underground station that arrives there at 1827 on Thursday evening.

No offence to the Scots, but I'm glad we're back in England, as I thought we'd be stuck in that bloody Lobster right up in the Highlands :lol:

Then a quick hop on 1G53, the 1200 Virgin Trains service to Preston, arriving there at 1214 on Sunday afternoon.
