On closer examination of the rail map, I see I can get to Whitstable direct from St Pancreas, and training down to Kings Crustacean is easy from DoctorTowers.

Indeed! As is so often the way, I save about £17 by split-ticketing

I was thinking of making my way over from south London after work camping and joining you for the ride. I just checked the trains and if I rode to Bromley south station then a train to Whitstable would be over £25 evenue after 7pm... I would be going back to west london on Sunday. £50 is a big downer. Anyone know how to get a cheaper fare for this area?

Have you tried any of the online ticket agents?

I'm yet to find an online agent that is cheaper. For example, Trainline say that they are up to 43% cheaper which is true they are up to 43% cheaper than the on the day price. A recent trip up north, it was cheaper to book from Virgin plus they don't charge a booking fee.
If you go through Southeastern, for the Friday previous I got £23.60 or you can lop some off by going to Faversham. It's an easy ride from there into Whitstable

I don't need to, I get a fantastic concession from work which is at least 75% off. I can get a return to London from Dover for £5.60, £7.60 off I want the fast train. I was just mooting the idea.

I didn't know that existed and I'm a fairly local lad.

Is that one of those 'Get the tide wrong and it will kill you to death' places?
Trying to work out who I know for this ride. FF and Hillwimp, and Hopless and TMN, but not sure about anyone else...

Not as much as 10 feet.
Nautical charts show The Street to be part of the landmass rather than the sea. It is only under a few feet of water when the tide is in.
The waters off Swale, Whizzy Belle and Herne Bay aren't particularly deep.
