Copy and paste that in your search bar..... prices are as follow 79 pound adult, 39.50 for child
after 0845 mon-fri , anytime saturdays
It would be Sat+mon+fri+sat in the whole week.

My only advice is plan each day well in advance. Double check you can't get on a class one two trains behind and still make your connections. And don't bail on the plan when you encounter a jam packed 150.

Headshot119 (Karl) and Sam Tugwell (Sam...) did a bash down in West Country area together recently and they planned ahead. I know because they kept on telling me about it and I'm thinking they may have even sent me their plan ahead of the bashing too.

While an invitation is possibly implicit in your earlier postings I think if might have been an idea to spell the detail of what you were seeking at an earlier stage.

Given the paranoia that now exists about inappropriate relationships, it would be a very, very brave older person who put his head over the parapet about this one.

I am in the UK that day but perhaps not able to come as it's too far from Wales.

Don't forget a minimum spend is needed if traveling before 09:00 on a railcard.
