On Thursday 28th November I went to Altrincham via Baguley. I delayed this from Saturday 23rd due to Storm Bert.

I walked to East Didsbury then my itin was as follows :-

Metrolink Baguley via St Werburgh's Road - Trams 3013 then 3029

18 Sale - Arriva 2998
CAT5 Partington - Warrington 213

41 Sale - Stagecoach 10847

Metrolink East Didsbury via Trafford Bar - Trams 3011 then 3071

As I did some shopping at Sainsbury's in Sale, I caught a 42 home. However, as this was for convenience and not within my bus trip area as such, I did not note the vehicle number.
