No idea.
Last year was a shambles as far as public transport goes (or at least in our experience).
We arrived at Milburngate expecting our purple steed to come whizzing round the corner off North Road within a few minutes.
After waiting and waiting, we found out they were turning left out of the bus station.
Despite it not being within the timeframe that they were supposed to be avoiding Milburngate.
We (and many others) then marched up to the bus station to get it.
Really keen on going this year, but will probably forgo the 20 this year due to the cost implications.
