Do you know, that is SO freaky you selected that stop, I very nearly rented a house by there in July!

We walk around the corner to the bus stop of the same name and board the 0727 Stagecoach West service D to Bishops Cleeve (The Swallow), arriving there at 0804 on Wednesday morning.

@ValleyLines142 - I think Tewkesbury just beat a return to Cheltenham!

Oops, I didn't see that!

That's okay, as I can just re-instate my move here at Tewkesbury, as we board the 1050 Stagecoach West service 43A to Cheltenham (Clarence Street), arriving there at 1140 on Wednesday morning.

We then leave the station and get the 1615 Green Line service 702 to Legoland (Main Entrance), arriving at 1649 Wednesday afternoon.

Given Legoland isn't actually in Windsor I'm not sure what to call this location, but you should be able to tell where it is

In fairness it's just outside Windsor, but even so I have zero desire to go back, went last month and there was absolutely zero social distancing and two hour queues for every ride!

We then board the 1700 Green Line service 702 to Knightsbridge (Royal Albert Hall), arriving there at 1830 on Wednesday evening.
