Try Shipley, on the "posh" commuter run. Or maybe @the_mikey can confirm for me.
Lost me regarding posh run?

New stations, wooden platforms, built for expensive out of the city center housing estates. Drive 20 yards to the station and then have to find a parking space. Then walk to catch the train into the city center. All the while complaining about the noise the trains make, some even work! on them.Lost me regarding posh run?

Club 50 gives me 20% off off-peak tickets, plus the odd £17 anywhere within a month return (off-peak travel) all for £15 a year. I did get a £1 return (same conditions) which I used to travel the West Highland Line. Oh, and you must do this one, the scenery is breathtaking. Due to time constraints I only got as far as Fort William but next time, it'll be Mallaig and crossing the Glenfinnan Viaduct (see Harry Potter movie)Do you still get your privileges that First used to offer or have this lot stopped it

I like your style Sir!Or ring up after they were due, asking if she liked them.
Then blaming Interflora for not delivering.

There are gems if you are willing to search out advance £5 single fares but these are well in advance. A pal got Mallaig for only £8 a return using over-50s card but hey, great value. Bikes are free apparently.
I also get cheaper off-peak with my old punter bus pass, return to Glasgow? 2/3 of the price. Pfft, I can just cycle there (as I do on occasion)
Good morning foot soldiers of the Tea army![]()
I know a few who've actually done just that.I like your style Sir!
I think I've awoken in Coventry. It's dank here today!!
G'day all.![]()
I don't know, try to pass on these money saving tips, and look at what happens!Tight fisted begger.
Good morning peeps.![]()
Serves you right!It was like a biblical flood here last night but today has been lovely. When we went out to the shops I put long trousers and a fleecy on as I thought it might be sunny but cold - not a bit of it, I was almost keeling over with heat exhaustion because of being overdressed!
Sorry...This is all your lots' fault. I had the strangest dream last night involving dining in a stately home and then being taken to the window to witness the bizarre re-routing of a steam train into the formal gardens. Apparently there were model railway tracks from a former era which were somehow perfectly adequate for the full sized Steam train.Where'd you park it?
Becomes even more important, can't hold up the fare paying passengers!
Unless, you're driving "third class" standing only!
