Pennywell/Grindon/Thorney - Aldi, or Roker/Seaburn/Fulwell - Southwick/QA Bridge/Pallion, or even Gilley Law/Thorney/Grindon - Prospect
Then there's the question of what about all them scholars who get on the 18A?
Do many get on the 18A, I never see it, tbf, most of those area's are covered by other services now unless other routes will be changed to accommodate the 18/18A's withdrawal.
