Hi Ron, Hmm, interesting thought, I guess I'm just used to using trains for longer journeys and as this is a journey I may need to make dally for work soon buses would I guess just take too long but thanks for the suggestion.

It may take longer but it might be possible. We are not allowed the trains at all in my area so you are a little better off in Nottingham.
