Really struggling with this timetable, as it doesn't list every stop!

We next board the 0738 Stagecoach North East service X82 to Newcastle General Hospital (Campus for Ageing & Vitality/Westgate Road), arriving there at 0800 on Thursday morning.

We walk 600 yards to the Victoria Road Bus Interchange and have a cup of tea and a cake whilst we wait for the 17:15 Diamond Bus service 15* to Hurley (Princes Road) where we arrive at 17:37 on Friday evening

* - operating a Saturday service (I think) which turns out to be the same as the Monday to Friday service anyway.

This looks ominous, we may be waiting for Saturday morning here but i'll see if anyone disagrees and posts a move!

Nothing else here in this housing estate, so we cross the road and wait for the bus back, as the driver recognises us back onboard the 11:05 Arriva Midlands service 7 to Stoneydelph, opp Sandy Way, arriving for 11:08 on Saturday morning.

I was just about to post a move to Nuneaton on the 65, as I remember these routes! It's like deja vu. Timetable is very confusing on top of what is already a very irregular service!

Think we'll have to wait now for the 1408 Arriva Midlands service 786 to Tamworth (Railway Station), arriving there at 1437 on Saturday afternoon.
