And he's not joking about the 'straight to it' bit - this will be a tight connection. One suggestion: if the bus waiting room is busy, make sure you get close to the doors - it's the quick and the dead when busy (or, more accurately, the quick and the waiting for the next bus).

(Murphy's Law dictates that I always get into the bus waiting room about 10 seconds after one has left - hopefully you'll have better luck, in which case you'll wonder what I'm worrying about!)
