It's going to cost me £40 quid in train fares.
I'm not sure I can afford that. It's lots. I'm still a trainee with a shit salary and lots of london rent to pay.
If I do come, people have to promise to buy me lots of beer....
It's not as bad as it sounds.
I really shouldn't have gone out drinking champagne cocktails last night to celebrate the SNP results.
Plus, i'm guessing that a pint is less than £3.50 in Bradford? That always helps matters...
Depdnds if your name is Dyl, we are in the love Apple and you order a Hoegaarden.
(No, beer is generally cheaply cheap.)
Right, just booking tickets and stuff.
If I book london to bradford it'll cost about £45. If I book London to Leeds and buy walk-up tickets for Leeds-Bradford for £1.60, the total cost is about £24!
But to get the cheap tickets to Leeds I need to choose one of the following options:
Option 1: Get the 10:53 train from Leeds back to London. THis means getting to Leeds for, like 10:30, so leaving bradford at about 10.
This doesn't sound terribly compatable with potential hangover situation.
Option 2: Get the 16:40 train from Leeds to London. THis involves having a 'spare' day in Bradford, but as I want to go see the photo-whatsit museum and stuff that isn't bad thing. Unless it's closed on Sundays.
Option 2 seems more sensible, but will cost a bit more in train tickets and stuff.
I don't like making decisions! :'(
If others are planning to get back to stations early and stuff then I'll probably try and go for the same. If not, then I'll book the later and fill my day as I see fit!
Yes, yes I am.
I blame staying in bed all day and typing on a laptop. Yes, I'm still in bed.
(fail)
Hmmm.
Hmmm I say.
Since it's on a Saturday, I may perchance be able to remain longer than previously anticipated since I won't be having to get up for work at 6.15 the next morning.
Yeah. But that means at least 2 hours plus a minimum of one changeover whereas I can get to York in 30 minutes and Leeds in just over an hour. Both direct too. For the going home bit, this means leaving by 8ish or I'm stuck on a platform in Leeds for the night. Well it's either that or the dog basket :)
I'm still coming along one way or the other though!
