Luckily, the capital city is a prime example of where buses run 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so we don't have long to wait before we board the 0107 Tower Transit service N550 to Trafalgar Square (Cockspur Street), arriving there at 0129 in the early hours of Monday morning.

........ 0212 Arriva London service N279 to Ponders End (Southbury Road), arriving there at 0243 in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Quiz day is now early Monday morning (the bus timings are still valid).

Not many options around here at this hour of the morning, so we reverse direction and take the 0301 Arriva London service N279 to Camden Town Station arriving 0340 Monday morning.

Sorry, I always lose track of what day we're on when we're still travelling in the early hours :lol:

We next board the 0359 Arriva London North service N279 to Waltham Cross bus station that arrives there at 0452 on Monday morning.

Wow! Well done Paul for stating a London bus operator's service! :)

Next move is on Metroline's 0510 departure of service 217 to Turnpike Lane Tube Station arriving at 0539 Monday morning.

We enter Turnpike Lane station, tapping our Oyster cards on the reader and board the 0547 Piccadilly Line service to Heathrow Terminals 1-3, arriving there at 0656 on Monday morning.

I think the timings are wrong on this move. It doesn't take an R70 45 minutes to get from Hampton Hill to Richmond.

Please remember to end your postings on this particular quiz by stating the "quiz-day" running onwards from previous postings.

In this case, it is Monday morning.

Paul leave jaffa840 alone. In fairness (s)he forgot only that once; on all other postings the day has been listed and we only need to look at the previous post to check.

Anyway, from Pershore Royal Arcade, we then board the 1926 First in Worcestershire and Herefordshire service X50 to Worcester (Crowngate Bus Station), arriving there at 1952 on Monday evening.
