These are the times we're going for if anyone's joining us:
Outbound: 09:29 SWINDON to 09:46 DIDCOT PARKWAY 09:47 DIDCOT PARKWAY 10:32 LONDON PADDINGTON 10:32 LONDON PADDINGTON 11:40 LONDON FENCHURCH STREET 11:40 LONDON FENCHURCH STREET 12:35 SOUTHEND CENTRAL
Return: 17:29 SOUTHEND CENTRAL 18:23 LONDON FENCHURCH STREET 18:23 LONDON FENCHURCH STREET 19:30 LONDON PADDINGTON 19:30 LONDON PADDINGTON 20:13 DIDCOT PARKWAY 20:14 DIDCOT PARKWAY 20:32 SWINDON
Splitting the tickets at Didcot works out cheapest. So return for Swindon > Didcot and then another return for Didcot > Southend Central.
I tried that but a return from Didcot to Southend C was 43.30! Unless I did something wrong. Anyway, cheers for that Sam.

Not really. Train to Paddington, tube to Fenchurch Street, train to Southend.

Ah yes, fair point.
If anyone fancies brekkie at Wetherspoons before getting on the train, I've got a load of vouchers for beer & breakfast.

I am really not looking forward to this any more and if it was not for the fact that I am going with my mates for a sesh then I dont think I could justify to myself on spending the £100 in all honesty. I have not felt like this for a very very long time

I walked in and asked the lady at the counter
"what is the cheapest way to get to Southend Central tomorrow"
she said
"that will be £93 for 3 of you please sir"
