I didn't not have my trip. The bus driver made me leave the bus because I had a small dog in a travel case on my lap. Even though I had booked and checked they do take dogs.

It was a smooth journey. Can't help the Bulgarian roads!! It would be good to have the onboard toilet operational.

Coach was over 30 minutes late in arriving at VT., nobody was around to keep all of us notified. Eventually it pulled up at the front of the depot and we all had to rush round. Nobody asked to see our tickets and no reason given for the delay. Luckily the journey was completed with no further complications.
