During the holidays, I needed an early 4. Got halfway to the stop and saw it in the distance - which led to me stepping up the pace a bit.
I knew I had left the house early, so checked my phone against the ticket and clock on board.
8mins early!
It should have been at the timing point previous, never mind 10mins up the road.
I was wondering if it was an earlier bus running late - the two passengers plus me (including a noticeable lack of regulars) indicated otherwise.
My connection in Houghton wasn't due for a while, which gave me ample opportunity to check for a 4 following behind.
Nowt appeared in the 10mins I needed to hang about.
Still, the driver managed to get a crafty smoke or several in the lay by behind the Co-op
