Just checked the trains from Surrey (I'll be at me mum's) and it's a piece of piss to make.  So a beery one for me :beers:

Anyone else coming up from Surrey (or Sussex) we can sort times and drink beer.

Also once the TEFfers know what time they'll be in London and were we're drinking we can meet up then.

Let's get pissed and send Gillingham down!

Who's on the train for this and how much is it?


Title: Gillingham away.
Post by: yeo on Monday, March 31, 2008, 17:05:59
I found £32.50 buying two singles when I briefly looked the other day.I can see it being a pain in the arse with the Old Bill and that so might give it a miss,not sure.

I'm on the train from London (Trains from Victoria are quickest so I'll leave from there!)

An adult day return from London to Gills is £13.20 but the overall cost will obviously depend which train you get from Swindon

Post by: herthab on Monday, March 31, 2008, 17:33:41
Got it to 28.50 return, leaving at 9.11 and arriving at 11.50.

Might be cheaper if bought in a group?

I think groups of 4 get half price? That might only with on the day prices though. Worth looking into.

For four people I found £114...which as you say is £28.50 return. If you buy in person from a train station I think you can get it cheaper. Better to do it soon too - buying on the day from Swindon to London is not a good idea as the prices can go up ridiculously high.

I found this for £23.80 but YP's railcard may have helped.

Group savers cant be bought for Saturdays before 15:00 along the Swindon -> London line... they've got the daytrippers and footy fans by the balls.

YP railcard saves you teh best part of a fiver between London and Jills, which would explain that!

Seems to me your someone in life that accepts being herded about, but I understand maybe its for the best you don't go, wouldn't want you to suffer in the hands of the nasty law enforcers.

Are you on a wind up AJ?

You obviously don't know Yeovil, yet your making a personal judgement based on an internet forum.

Which is a little stupid.........................................

Would've caught the train from Yeovil instead, but Dan's down here between Rovers on Tuesday and Gills on Saturday.

12:30 pm kick off won't stop the trouble, the pikeys will be out in force.


Title: Gillingham away.
Post by: DMR on Tuesday, April 8, 2008, 21:49:42
Fucks sake, doubt I'll bother now. Done Gills last time and once was enough for me tbh anyway, tick the cunting place off the list and never go back unless it's a big game.

My birthday weekend anyway so might be better off just going on the lash in Birmingham as I'd originally planned.

I can't be bothered to get up that early either to visit the pikey hole that is Priestfield.

It's local, but 2h 20m on the train and probably get kicked out after 10 minutes seems a bit of a waste of time. No thanks.
