I had been using BusTimes, a great app from Kevin Wells but it stopped
working with an error.

Reporter output..

I had a key but can't find the details and I can't find where it's stored
in the app or on the computer to check if all is OK.

I seem to remember Kevin saying there was a problem with the API key and
he was looking for a new provider. 

I've emailed Kev but no reply yet. Probably very busy.

Has anyone else got this working?
