Day off and new times

Day off today. had to go to doctors as gout still playing up. Have some pills to take for a few days. Also got a cold which does not help. Anyway spent the day getting some of my paperwork up to date and updating this blog. Have added a link so you can book tickets directly from the site. As a lot of you reading this are not in the UK I will try and give a little more information on the places I go through on my travels. Tomorrow is my first day back since the new timetable and fares came in so hope we have no problems.

Church today

Well off for a few days (legal break) Worked yesterday as a 'Rest Day' so a few extra pennies in the bank. Sunday today and for a change not working so managed to get to church today. Nice service and a baptism as well. was nice to catch up on people and thank the Lord for what he does for me. Also some good news about setting up The Christians Against Poverty centre at church.

How to book a National Express ticket

Well, not much going on last few days. Have a timetable change coming up so going on a route drive tomorrow. One thing I did think of was as customer was boarding I realized they had never travelled on a coach and had no idea of what to do.
So here is a few steps for getting from A to B.

1. Book your ticket. You can do this on line, via mobile phone or at a travel agent.
2. Check your ticket. Make sure date a time is correct.
3. Arrive in good time at your departure point (at least 10mins for departure)
4. When called hand your ticket to the driver. They will check it and either mark it or tear off the counter foil.
5. The driver should take your luggage and load in the hold. (Please note cases over 20kg will not be loaded by the driver)
6. Board the coach and find a seat. There are no allocated seats.
7. Make yourself comfortable.
8. Listen to anything the driver says.
9. Enjoy your trip.

That was easy!!

Have a few days off now so will enjoy the break.
