When did Bungle use the 726?

The clue to Bungle's use of the 726 being in the early to mid '90s was the reference to One Day Travelcards - my ticket of choice for this route (and other Green Line services) was the Golden Rover - or if feeling particularly adventurous, the National Wanderbus!

What is the 726 Green Line?

There were two Green Line services running from Dartford numbered 725 and 726 with a slight variation in route between Dartford and Sidcup, from where both services shared the same route to Croydon via Bromley and Elmers End, and thence on to Heathrow Airport (and 'back in the day' there were other Green Line services that provided services between those two points). The services then continued to Windsor. Services ran every half hour, alternating between the two routes, with additional peak journeys between Dartford and Croydon. IIRC, timetables gave three hours for the Dartford to Windsor journey.
