I'm talking about top of Faraday Avenue turn right, then turn left so you're facing Quinton police station - it's dodgy there when they meet.

Apologies again! Yes sorry you're right that is an awkward place. When I did the route there was always a silver people carrier parked opposite the junction and a silver peguoet 206. Wonder if theyre still there.

@Mike K you're right! The Pimpernel has gone (thank god)

Cool! I am still wondering if it got a brand new engine or 4341s engine.

Hybrids not so unusual on the evening journey as it's (or certainly was) a 22/23 running board. One of the morning journeys is usually a B7RLE, the other usually Trident, sometimes E400
