Quins away in July

Subject: Quins away in July Tue Apr 21, 2009 9:35 pm

I've just booked my weekend for this fixture I know it's early but you have to to get the deals!

We're going on the train which has cost £32 ( The coach would've been too expensive as I would have to pay full for the young un plus didn't want to wait for someone with a spare place in their car as I would not want to put Cobi upon anyone!).

Due to uncertainty about whether this could be put back to 6 for Sky made me look into a hotel and I found a travelodge near Heathrow for £19!

So I am now booked for two weekends in two of our countries capitals London and Edinburgh just for the Giants!!

Despite all the attention being on this weekend I have just seen that National Express are doing a promotion!!

On the 11th they are 4 trains in the morning with this £9 rate can only find one for sat evening 1803 but there are 6 on the sunday! The only drawback is that is that this fare is from Leeds and needs to be booked by Tuesday!

Don't do taxi's me!! Topping up my mums oyster card for my trip!! £20 for a taxi seems steep when it's around the distance from home to town and I can walk that easily!!!

Maybe but I checked on multimap the walking distance and I can easily walk it!! But I will be using the local public transport!! Also I think you're on about the M4 one which a few stayed at a year or so back! This one I've booked on is just outside Houndslow on Bath Road!

I've heard a fair few are going for the weekend to this but unlike me many are checking the Feltham residence out! Which is further off the tube map so no good for me! Not sure of any official organised trip though only an unofficial one!
