Isle of Wight dwellers - your bus services

[JudgeJ]

I've just had a look at the Southern Vectis bus website to plan a trip to the island. What has happened to your buses?

The number 7 no longer goes right round the island (a good day out if the weather was not too grand � plentiful "refuelling" points on the way). There is now no service along the south coast road between Brook and Blackgang (not heavily populated I know, but some of the best views to be had from the top of a bus anywhere). Various other changes have also been made.

The website says that these changes have been made to "provide a more reliable service". Well, it will certainly be more reliable along the south coast road � you can depend on there being no buses at all!

I'm only looking at it from a Grockle's point of view. What do you Caulkheads make of these drastic changes?
