Tuesday 22nd January ~ Single Please
Just the one to report today. Gemini WVL486 on the 19 from Highbury Corner to Finsbury Park at around 16.40.
Saturday 19th January ~ Chilly Saturday
Started with the boarding of 172 001 at Harringay Green Lanes with the 09.57 to Gospel Oak, which I took to Upper Holloway. After finding my appointment was postponed, yippee! I decided to go for a bus run round town, on this cold, grey but cosy half-awake day. I boarded Enviro400 TE926 on the 4 at it's starting stop in Archway for the run all the way down to Angel, running via Tufnell Park and Finsbury Park.

Another cold winter's day, started with Gemini WVL481 on the 19 from Finsbury Park to Piccadilly (Waterstone's), my next move was Enviro400 no.9545 on the C2, which I took from Piccadilly (Down Street) to Camden Gardens, this running up to Camden via Albany Street.

Walked across to Cavendish Square then to board ALX400 no.17796 at the start of it's journey on the 55, this I took to New Oxford Street. Later I found myself by Charing Cross station, and to get back home I decided to go with Enviro400 TE905 on the 91 to Parkhurst Road, running via Russell Square and Caledonian Road, there changing for Gemini VLW159 at the start of it's journey on the 254, which I took back to Manor House.
