I pay over £1000 per year for this privilege please do not insult me by telling me to use a taxi instead, unless your offering to pay for them.
Don't quite get how getting a taxi is an insult given it would get you there without connections and speedier. I use the buses a lot but you're only asking for trouble in the long run if you're cutting it by 5 minutes. If you have more than 5 minutes per connection, then surely it makes no difference if that one particular bus takes 5 minutes?
