http://www.stagecoachbus.com/timetables.aspx?serviceid=&locationId=0&from=oxford&to=bicester
I know the x5 is excluded from most day and week tickets as I think its one of the most profitable routes (my weekly megarider ticket excludes travel on that route
)
Probably means they charge an arm and a leg for it :mad:Historic Debt August 2009 = £63,600 10th March 2017 = £0 100% paid all gone!
Mortgage started June 2015 = £170,000 January 2022 = £134,000
Saving for Xmas 2022= . . Amazon £55

I'm trying to remember if they've made this change in the past and then changed it back to 3 hours? But I can't recall.
C&C still says can take up to a week. Still waiting for mine that I collected last Wed.0 -
