In late February 2020 I made a trip by bus to Mountsorrel to visit Stonehurst Farm. Buses used to be part of my way of life with regards to transportation; however, this would be the last time that I rode a bus outside of Loughborough to date, as within weeks lockdown hit, and since then (apart from one more bus journey from the town centre to my house) I haven't ridden even one bus (or any other motor vehicle, for that matter). But enough of that now, here we go...
