A Change of Bus Route

 I went into Hereford yesterday to pick up my Young Man from the station.

Instead of heading down the hill towards Cusop, the first thing the bus did was to turn round and head down the hill to Hay Bridge.  This was slightly alarming - I had no idea it was going to do this, but it turns out that there are roadworks at the Bage, which basically cuts off the bus route from Hay to Hereford.  So instead, we travelled along a road I haven't been along in years - going through Winforton and Letton and the Weir Garden to enter Hereford along King's Acre Road.  It was rather nice to see the view from the other side of the Wye for a change.

At the Monument roundabout we turned left to the race course, and from there headed into the city centre, past the football pitch, and rejoined the original T14 route at Debenhams.

This is only a temporary change - soon everything will be back to as normal as it ever gets, and the bus will be travelling along the Golden Valley again.

We had a very enjoyable buffet lunch at Planet, the Chinese place by the bus station before we came back to Hay.  We've done this so often now that we have a "usual table".
