Also credit for actually doing something about it even knowing it's not ideal reducing frequencies but personally I'd prefer that than it might be, it might be running but it's okay as we told you 12 hours in advance so it's not our problem you have to wait an extra hour for a bus.
Funny thing is, to some (myself included) the temporary X66 timetable is argubly an improvement, despite the longer journey time, its balanced out with a higher frequency to many although at the loss of service to Lingfield Point & Haughton Road.
