The drivers have to wait in Heswall for 5 minutes so connections can be made, so if the X22 was 13minutes late then fair play to the 38 driver, hes not in the wrong at all. The driver of the X22 obviously isnt going to be deliberately running late so its just bad luck really.

I may have posted this before but here goes... In 1979 three chums and I attended a soccer match in San Diego, USA. None of us had hired a car and so relied on local buses. The game finished later than expected (midnight) and we were concerned that we were likely to miss our (bus) transfer. The driver of the first bus was aware of our concern and radioed the other bus - using a Motorola device - to tell it to wait where the two routes intersected. Sure enough, the connecting bus waited several minutes for us and we got back to our hotel safe and sound. Naively I thought that one day such joined-up thinking would be common-place in the UK.
