It's happened again - I've spent a ridiculous amount of time comparing route options and costs for a couple of rail trips in February.
With the first (Felixstowe-Lincoln) it turned out quicker and cheaper to take the longest route with the most changes (via Norwich & Newark Northgate) than a shorter, similar route but more hanging around. The most obvious direct route was the longest and most expensive.
For Lincoln-Harrogate the next day I've ended up with three separate tickets all to save £2 on the Trainline price which already includes split ticketing!
This is the sort of thing that passes for entertainment on long dark winter evenings

Frosted pavements on my pre work walk around the block.
Clear blue sky with weak sunshine.
First cuppa brewing.
It's Friday

48 for 4. Australia following where England led.

Bright and frosty again. With mercifully little wind.
