Then 3 turn up

Bus at 9:30 to try a friend's Lavazza coffee machine (to replace the now binned Nespresso). Due to arrive with her at 10:00. Instead got hopelessly lost when we got off the bus. The signal must've played up. We kept going the wrong way and having to retrace our steps. Arrived 30mns late.

Then intended to take the No. 20 (runs hourly) to Ashley Cross. Electronic sign kept adding a few more minutes. Finally when we'd waited 15mns, started to walk. Heated up, so gave up at the next bus-stop. Bus arrived 30mns late.

Had a wander round Ashley Cross. Then another lengthy wait for the bus home. Typically 3 came together.

(In our area local buses are usually pretty good)
