pearl Report post Posted May 14, 2008 Our train tickets arrived today!!!! Furthermore, thanks to a helpful article in the Observer a couple of weeks back, I compared prices with the online service I usually use (you know the one) then compared it with the train companys website which I didnt even know you could do, and got my tickets from them �50 cheaper!

David Matthew Baker Report post Posted May 19, 2008 Have booked a hostel now. It's presently looking like I might have to drive. Can anyone recommend a good place to leave a car near Oxford St. Also does anyone know how much it costs? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss Report post Posted May 19, 2008 David, when we've come down we've used NCP carparks.....they have a website, and you can book in advance, for say 24 hours, although someone who uses London regularly will probably know somewhere cheaper.
