We walk the 250 yards to Harry Tuffins (which turns out, slightly disappointingly, to be a supermarket) and repair to Laila's Café for breakfast while we wait for the 07:15 Minsterley service 435 to Church Stretton (Café) where we arrive at 07:35 on Monday morning.

The surrounding areas of Greater Bristol and Greater Brighton most certainly qualify as two more additions to your three areas named above.....speaking from years of participating on this thread (when I am not taking sabbaticals away from it)...:rolleyes:

Greater Bristol? I certainly cannot remember the last time we were in the Greater Bristol area personally.

It's okay, it's only a couple of minutes, it's not as if Zoe is still here :lol:

I was just about to pick our next route and random and picked the 15, but it goes to Merry Hill via Wombourne and, from previous discussion, we've been going there a lot, so instead we take the five minute walk to the bus station and board the 1256 National Express West Midlands Platinum service X8 to Edgbaston (Ivy Bush), arriving there at 1412 on Monday afternoon.

The 2 and 74 have both died down for the night, so we'll have to wait for the 2052 Arriva Midlands service 75B to Stafford (Cope Street), arriving there at 2133 on Monday evening.
