Overall a very enjoyable day! This wasn't planned, so I just went wherever I fancied! Some of the connections were caught by the skin of my teeth, like the connection from the 53 onto the 17, in fact, I was lucky the 53 was six minutes late! I was hoping for a Spectra on the 34, but got a B10BLE which was canny. The Commander I rode were my favourite out of the lot though, fantastic buses in my opinion. 1796 was disgusting, so had to get off in Bedlington.
All of this was done on a £5 Arriva Day Ticket, apart from the 17 (it was only a 60p single so didn't bother me at all), which is cracking value.
