It's within two hours of the end of the nighttime skip, so I think it would be OK.

A few things.

Firstly, a simple walk to a bus stop or train station is not permitted as a move.

Secondly, there is, from nearby Victoria Hall, a 2200 departure on the 5 towards Maidstone.

I apologise Dan, I saw earlier in the posts that people were walking to close areas so I did assume that it was acceptable as a move. Although I'm local to here I did not consider looking at nearby bus stops as often, Arriva Southern Counties buses tend to finish at roughly 6-7 on weekdays anyway.

Sorry for bumping this 2 page old response however, I've been offline and was kindly notified by Paul Sidorczuk that there was a response.

I'll take this on in future.

And as I have made this reply, I should also make a move.

We then take the 08:29 1J11 South West Trains service to Lymington Pier where we arrive at 08:40 on Monday morning.

Not to worry!

Taking the nine minute walk to Station Street, we then board the 0940 Bluestar service 6 to Totton (Shopping Centre), arriving there at 1040 on Monday morning.

Then get the 10:12 South West Trains service 1J17 to Lymington Pier, arriving at 10:22 Monday morning.

Not quite sure why you've left a two hour gap here at Brockenhurst considering there are earlier services however mat64nl did just get there before you so I've followed on from his move.

We then decide to visit the historic Brooklands racetrack, so a short walk to Weybridge Rail Station North bus stop on Brooklands Road puts us in position to catch the 1401 Arriva Kent & Sussex service 436 to Brooklands, Mercedes Benz World (on Brooklands Drive) where we arrive at 1409 on Monday afternoon.
