I prefer not to travel by train. They never run when they say they are going to, and they always smell of Wee.
If anybody needs a lift from Bristol area, to Barnet, just give me a shout, ok?

The new Voyagers and Pendolinos are very nice SS. Travelled on one of each between Wolves and Manchester the other week over Easter, they are quite smooth, very flash and have plug-in radios between the seats (Headphones 2 quid from on-board shop!) Anyone travelling by train via Wolves, post up, could do with some company (Would rather get lost with a fellow Shrewfan than on me own! ), and if nothing else can go splits on transport from Wolves!

Bristolloggerheads,
Ive got my ticket sorted, my I gave my card to my brother, who will get my ticket, and give it to me when I arrive in Barnet.
I work in Bristol, and will be going to Barnet straight from work, around 4pm to 4:30pm.
I can give you a lift if you want, no problem, and I saw a thread from MartinB who is trying to put something in place to get some tickets down to Barnet.
