Go with a flexible attitude and you will be OK. 

The 93 and 94 are at the whims of traffic around Gateshead and several pinch points en-route. 

Remember that:
* The 93 will get you back to Gateshead quickly. 
* The 94 will drop you off at several stops along the route which will connect with Newcastle bound services or take you all the way round. 
* The stop behind Mothercare allows you to get either the 93 or 94. It's the only stop on the valley where they share a stop.
* Kingsway North/Maingate will allow you to get to Gateshead or Newcastle. Or, the Metrocentre via a tour of Whickham. You just need to get there. 
* A 93 to Bensham will allow you to connect to a 53 which will take you straight over the Redheugh Bridge.
* There's various work services that can get you to/from Newcastle or the Metrocentre if timings work.

Thank you for all your help. 

Yeah, I'm rather concerned the 93 won't turn up. I want the 93 because it's quick to Gateshead Interchange. Where could I get off the 94 onto a Newcastle bound service? It wouldn't be worth getting off the 93 to connect with a 53, I can just change at the interchange.

The works services are not an option unfortunately, I wish they were!

As the 91 doesn't run on weekends, how do I get to Gateshead Interchange to connect with the 94 early in the morning?
