Well, that was slick! The bus into Weymouth stops right outside our hotel, across the street. The driver sold me a ticket, and twenty-five minutes later I was within a five minute walk of the train station. I hit the info window at a quiet time and was able to get my ticket and all the transfer instructions I need for a smooth trip to Banbury on Thursday. Have already talked with Bev, who will meet my train at 10:52. I have needlework with me to help pass the three and a half hours spent in transit. I have a feeling, however, that most of the time will be spent looking out the window at the passing countryside.
Once finished at the train station, I continued yesterday's exploration of Weymouth. I was very surprised to discover that there is a small quilt shop in a shopping arcade that has taken up residence in a former brewery. Fabric is all from the U.S. and very expensive, but at least I know there are quilters in these parts. Will hunt them down later.
Tonight we ate "pub grub" at a place right on Chesil Beach that Peter had recommended. I had sea scallops and Dwight chose curry. We shared a slice of Dorset apple cake (with ice cream) for dessert. All yummy.
On that sweet note, I bid you a fond good night.

Dorset Apple Cake...does this mean we have a new recipe book to look forward to upon your return or shortly thereafter?
