A brief unscheduled stop in Witham as we’re running to plenty of time. Time for a bit of fresh air in this horrible hot weather a leg stretch, pleasant even after all the walking in Norwich!

A wander and some nibbles in Norwich have ensued after a delightful journey up.. now it’s time to head back home!

Good morning, today is another @hastingsdiesels.co.uk tour and we’re already underway! We are Norwich bound via Cambridge to begin with!

And that’s us all done with today’s trip! This will be it until the 21st where it’s the Hastings Diesels tour to Norwich which as usual I’ll be on the ball for updates! Have a nice evening, I’m off to bed, probably, after being up 18 hours!

From one train to another, it’s now time for the 20:26 service to Ore!

While the weather might be improving, I’m pooped! I’m now on the 18:57 to Brighton having me home and ‘dry’ in Hastings hopefully by about half-nine!

The rains have hit! With weather being a lot more unpredictable than I expected I’m headed back towards the city centre to find some dinner and consider some options for returning home later on!

Now it’s time just to enjoy Portsmouth for what it is! Some wandering and some spotting is due now :)

We’re back on a bus now, after a sit on a beach with some lunch and 484005! We’re headed back in the Portsmouth direction now :3

Now we’re in Havant the hunt for lunch begins, then after that we’re bound for another island that’s a bit different to Portsea!

A hop to Gosport and back on the E2 and then a 9 had ensued.. Now it’s time for an X4 back to Portsmouth where lunch will be hunted and it’ll be time to pick my next destination or something along those lines!

It’s now time for one thing I definitely aimed for today! Doing the Eclipse Routes! After a X5 to Fareham that’s what we’re now on to do, starting with an E1 which is again a Electroliner Kite

After arriving into Portsmouth & Southsea we now wait for a train to the last stop, Portsmouth Harbour where busses begin out of the Hard Interchange!

The adventure continues with a lucky snag of a nicely specd 377! We’re going off at Portsmouth & Southsea today which is where today’s main event takes hold :3

Good morning from a damp Hastings! We’re off to venture around the West Coastway area today.. let’s get moving!

And that’s us back at Hastings after that short adventure! Not too stupid timing wise and I’ve got the evening to still enjoy!

And now it’s time for just one more bus on this mini-trip! A 99 back to Hastings, and like this morning we’ve been treated to another of Hastings Depots finest!

Things continue with me now on a 13X headed for Eastbourne via Beachy Head!

While in Brighton some bus riding is occurring and also the hunt for lunch! After all this it’s a 13X that takes me fancy :3

Next bus, it’s a Gemini! After heading up into Kent we’re now headed back down to the coast!

Good morning on this fantastic bank holiday Monday! Today we’re off for some bashing, first stop is that Ex-South-Wales Scania K230UB! It’s time for a 1066 to Tunbridge Wells!!

And that’s us all done once again! What a fab and relaxed day trip to the Bluebell Railway?! Big thank you to @hastingsdiesels.co.uk and all their volunteers as usual for making this tour as fantastic as always!

Victoria, a tad late but we’ll make up time thanks to pathing allowances! Homeward bound we are!

The time has come, it’s time to depart from Sheffield park on the @hastingsdiesels.co.uk tour and back to Hastings via London Victoria once again! It’s been a marvellous afternoon at the Bluebell with a lovely journey home awaiting us!

Bluebell Railway shenanigans continue with some trains up and down the line! Plenty of time left to have fun while we wait for the return journey!

We’ve made it to London Victoria! We’re due to leave at 10:01 so we have some time to wander and stretch our legs before we head towards East Grinstead for Sheffield Park!!

We’re just leaving Tonbridge continuing our journey along after making up our delay we had leaving Hastings! We should be making good time now for fast run up to Victoria!

Good morning from Hastings! It’s time we’re off on another @hastingsdiesels.co.uk I think! Today we’re off to the Bluebell Railway via London Victoria. We’re a bit late so let’s get this party started 😎

Well a rather bizarre end to the trip, after being 20L into Hastings… Everything in the Ore direction is canceled!! Seems the East Coastway has gone bugger up!

Did somebody say that the 90s were back? Just by chance after thinking it’s not going to be out past 10ish I’ve seen the stunning example of the networker fleet 465908 “Chris Green”

After a walk from North Greenwich I’m now at IKEA where I have some browsing to do!

Some time for spotting has ensued and now our journey continues onward! Greenwich here we come!

My adventuring has landed me at Harringay which everybody should know is a prime sporting location! Some lunch and trains sounds like good fun if you ask me :3

There isn’t really a plan for today apart from I need to go and browse furniture at an Ikea! So let’s do some bashing!

Trains today? Trains today! Off up to the big smoke :3

Coastway Will

Out on the first 99, home on the last 1066. That’s pretty good running for a £10 discovery ticket and £9 on an Oyster card! I’m on my 322 home now and that’s this trip done and dusted!

Well if you couldn’t tell I missed the earlier 1066 thanks to pileeessss of roadworks on the route of the 7! However we’re now homeward bound, a good while after leaving this morning too!

Back to scheduled programming with a 7 to Tunbridge Wells! It’s a tight connection for the 1066, fingers crossed we make it or it’s dinner in the opera house!

Seems we just can’t catch a break in this country anymore. How many times does it have to be said that, Trans women ARE women, Trans men ARE men and trans rights ARE HUMAN RIGHTS. We aren’t political pawns for your ‘culture war’ and for you to define things you can’t define.

And now we arrive into lovely Chatham and await the next 101 down to Maidstone!

And those next steps were… a train to Dartford! If I didn’t get a train I’d have been stuck in later today so it’s for the best! We now head to Bluewater to connect with a 700 into Chatham!

And this is what I’m classing as my finish line! Trafalgar Square from Hastings in just about 8 hours by normal public bus. Now for the next steps…

The adventure continues on the 468 as we head up to Elephant & Castle where we’re due in an hour. After that we’ll get a 12 towards Trafalgar Sqaure and I’ll call that the end!

After a decent chunk of travelling we’ve only just made it to Redhill! We now move from a South Downs Discovery to my Oyster card for the last couple busses of this journey! The next bus here is a 405 to Croydon :3

My 99 and 12X were a success and now it’s time for a 273 up to Crawley! The adventure continues :3

Good morning from aboard a 99 at Hastings Station.. I had an idea to do something random today so here it is! London from Hastings all on normal busses :3 Let’s get a wiggle on shall we?

And that’s us done! Another tour is over and done with, bashing EWR and the such has been great fun. Big thank you to @hastingsdiesels.co.uk as always!

Some adventures by bus have ensued, including a go on an E400ev for my first time since Farnborough Last Year! And we’re now back on the move again towards Hastings, Homeward bound it is!

And now we arrive into Bicester Village! My next destination for this is probably expected, it’s a bus to Oxford!
