In the past, noting the number of postings that have been made since then, the advice given was to carry on from the last posting made and to ignore that missed posting.

Gameplay.....Additional Notes

If arriving by bus or coach then you should name the area in addition to the stop name.

Perhaps an opportune time to show the above extract from the rules section.

A Challenge · 25 Nov 2017

Could I ask you include a depature time.

Anyway, if we stay in the same car (so also departing at 22:45) we should be able to make it back to Emirates Greenwich Peninsula, which given the 12 minutes should mean we arrive at 22:57. Not time for another ride now though!

Noting that the "quiz day of the week" is currently Wednesday evening, we take the four minutes walk to North Greenwich LU station and just have time to catch the 2302 LU Jubilee Line service to Stanmore LU station that arrives at 2352 on Wednesday evening.

Emerging from the tube station, we then board the 0000 Metroline service H12 to South Harrow (Bus Station), arriving there at 0035 in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

Quite rare to see a timetabled public transport service to depart at 0000; usually they depart at 2359 or 0001 to avoid confusion!
