Spare tyre deployed.
Fanny and us taken on the wee ferry.
Puncture mended and tyre replaced on car.
Now holed up in a lay-by (pocket?) waiting for a scheduled bus to go by and then we'll be on our way.
The main thing is we're on the right side of the water now!

Is the bus traveling in the same or opposite direction?
Roads too narrow to pass?
Being timid or courteous?
Or just taking the opportunity to spend some time in your rolling den of iniquity before returning to your roll of upstanding citizen?

Every time I see a road sign reading "Expect Delays" I think no shit, anytime I drive I expect delays.

Bus was travelling in opposite direction, the roads are narrow and twisty and the buses are really too wide for the roads (standard size instead of dinky little buses). Being both timid and courteous I'd say.
