    Write this down - 17th-19th december - on the Friday any time after 9:00 am, arriving no later than 10pm, and on the way back I don't care.

    Haha I cant book them tho, they would have to ring up and do that and they probs wouldnt get me, so no revenue! Even if I do find the cheap tickets there's no guarantee someone else might buy the last ones by the time they ring up!

    Still I should get a fuckin medal for this stirling attempt at publicity! :D

    :up: will av a look for ya mate!


    Right did everyones tickets today... here ya go...


    @Nass - virgin tickets fully booked all day on ya dates, must not have released many... ya lookin at a saver ticket which is about £69.90... give GNER a ring and see if someone can find something else for ya cos might be a cancellation... they will have it all in front of them too :up:

    @Lee - Virgin not open for reservations on your dates (the are shit like that) but could be opening soon... if they do you would be looking at single fares of either £9.50 and £12.00. If they sell out a superadvance return is £23.00 (thats without railcard discount, so minus a third). If they sell out it will be a saver fare which is a bit cheaper than nass's :up:

    @sexyminx - Advance purchase tickets sold out so a saver return is £41.40 :up:


    Its always worth giving em a ring on 08457225225 to see if ive missed anything... it was a busy day today! :D
