Typical August Bank Holiday then

 

[Hans Kraay]

all virgin trains cancelled so they have layed on coaches!!!!!! f*** that!!!!

 

[Yorkie]

Try Midland Mainline via Sheffield ?

 

[Hans Kraay]

is that the one that stops at every station in england should i leave on friday afternoon and book monday off

 

[Yorkie]

No it's not bad. You can go Thameslink through to Bedford and then change and there are only 4 stops to Sheffield. Change again and a local train then to Barnsley.

You live in the wrong part of the country for me

I do this for the chairman at my present job and will be seeking employment in the Brighton area once we move.
