Okay, those of you going on the
tw_meetup to Gareth's panto on 3rd January... there's a bunch of us travelling by coach, but if we want to get on the same bus (and we totally do; it's a 6 hour journey) then we need to book the same coach and we need to book it soon.
We can book by funfare for £10-16 return atm.
£10 would obviously be preferable but I'd say that we'd be best paying £13-16 and leaving at a reasonable time.
Going from London (Sat 2nd) we have the following options;
Leave: 08:00 Arrive: 13:40, £8
Leave: 11:00 Arrive: 16:40, £8
Leave: 13:30 Arrive: 19:30, £8
Leave: 15:30 Arrive: 21:40, £5
Leave: 23:30 Arrive: 07:05, £5
Coming back from Preston (Mon 4th) we have the following options;
Leave: 06:50 Arrive: 13:50, £5
Leave: 08:50 Arrive: 15:05, £5
Leave: 11:15 Arrive: 17:20, £8
Leave: 15:30 Arrive: 21:30, £8
Leave: 22:40 Arrive: 06:20, £5
The prices will change the longer we leave it, which is why we need to make a decision & book very soon.
I think, personally, that he best option would be to go with leaving 11am going & 11:15 coming back, but that'd be £16 (if we booked right now!) and so it's up to everyone... but if people don't get back to us soon we're just going to have to go ahead and book something cos I know that I won't be able to afford to wait until it's £15 each way for people to make a decision.
