  Only 5 of the 30 operators are running some sort of service and absolutely nothing outside the South East despite a full programme of Football, 8 race meetings and the first day of the sales.

  Which is why myself and carer are stuck in a Premier Inn just off Oxford Street on Boxing Day. NOT looking forward to this.

  But there are Boxing Day buses, e.g. National Express running Victoria to Dover.

  Bob will be ok in London with buses and the underground running but South East trains are running London to Ashford on the high speed I don't see why they can't continue to Dover Priory.

  Apparently there will be a special service on Boxing day but not up to the usual high standard.
