it wasnt so bad i did some sleeping and eating and some more sleeping and atempted to learn the words to JFPL and a bit of knitting

ok im very late at reply to this but it turns out it was £5 (plus 50p booking fee but that was split between 4 bus trips so £5.12 1/2)
however in comparrison this was the expensive trip got to love the £1 to get from manchester to London!

the problem is when you have standards, then travel / hotels get expensive

But if the flight is £20, and you buy a £25 voucher with a £5 fee, don't you end up spending the £30 you would've anyway?

well i have only wasted £12 if that is the case, if there was 10 seats left then i would have risked waiting until i had gotten the ticket, but 3 seats left now for the cheapest flight of that day.

I admit that after buying the edition with Nicky in it, I've taken to browsing through it in the newsagents. There are some very nice pictures in it.

Is Glasgow Central near to Queen Street station then? A bit like Kings Cross/St Pancras?
