    Wild Wanderings in Wales

    As @TheGrandWazoo (and others) have done write-ups of their travels I thought I should contribute! Whilst it’s just two journeys with New Adventure the comments ramble on about various things so I've started a new thread and the mods can move it if needed! There used to be a series of...

    Bath coach park, missing in action!

    Somebody showed me a picture today of the area that used to be Bath coach park. Wheres the last time I saw it there was a building with toilet (closed a while ago as people don't need toilets in this digital age), a cafe and an undercover area to wait for the numerous coaches that Bath usually...

    Wells Running Day 2019/2020

    Discussion of the running day on service 376 Bristol-Wells 2019 I was going to call this 'Confessions of an amateur bus driver' so I'd better give some context to that remark. I’ve never worked as a bus driver and wouldn’t be able to cope with the requirements of dealing with what they have to...

    Imberbus across Salisbury Plain

    Timetables for this year's Imberbus service are now on line. Hopefully the MOD will have dealt with the current fire on the plain by 18th August. https://imberbus.wordpress.com/imberbus-2018/ The service is now providing a park and ride facility on the plain itself and 6 buses an hour out of...
