I went out looking for a new car today. I had to go to Waterlooville, I caught the E2 at the bottom of our road across to Gosport bus station, a quick dash across on the ferry, Them from the interchange at the hard I caught the Number 8 and that took me up to Waterlooville. When I arrived, there was a Number 7 heading towards Weecock Farm, and I knew the first part of the route took me very close to where I wanted to go, two changes of bus,, and a ferry trip saw where I needed to be, with no hiccups.
I did what I needed and the person I was seeing kindly gave me a lift back to the centre of waterlooville. Now to get to where I needed to go next, no internet resource seemed able to work out a route that didn’t involve a two mile walk, so the easiest thing to do was to get a taxi.
Well, actually, it wasn’t easy at all. Waterlooville seems to hide its taxi ranks, do you think i could find one? No, I couldn’t. In the end I thought, well, OK I’ll try Uber.
How easy was that? I did the booking and paid, was told where to meet the taxi, how long it would be before it would take for it to arrive, the name of the driver and the registration. And it all worked wonderfully.
i ended up at the MG garage in Cosham, did what I needed there, and then walked a short distance to get the Number 21 back to The Hard. Which, apart from a brief diversion due to a road closure, went very well. It was really good today.
