Tried all variations, still couldn't manage it.
Guess the kg/km will have to stay.
Oh, and according to stagecoach I cannot take my tools to work with me.

Tried every regular journey I could think of. "No results found."

Tried my route to work direct - tried to send me via Birmingham International airport.
Then tried in sections - by time I got to work , it'd be time to start home , and price - about twice that on the road.

The first bus into Newport from my village leaves at 9AM, getting there at 9:55. The bus stop is 15 minutes walk from my house.

Getting home is a little more reasonable, there is a bus from Newport at 18:05 and then one at 20:05. I would rapidly get tired of missing the 18:05 bus and having to wait 2 hours.

I can drive to Newport in 20 minutes. Maybe 30 at rush hour.

My village has two buses per week - one on Wednesday and one on Saturday.

Useful, eh?

Return or one way? If the bus leaves on Wednesday waiting til Saturday to come home would be problematic :D

The pace of life here is pleasantly slow...but not that slow!
