There was an accident and road works on the way. Not the fault of the bus company. The driver was excellent.

The bus driver was unaware that his bus was operating for national express, he send to an information booth and drove off. The information staff told me that that had been my bus. I had to wait 30 min for a next bus. On a full day international trip, this type of stuff makes a journey exhausting.
