I had to pop into London last week for the day, to my horror the cost of the ticket was £39.90 return from Royston in Herts.
That's my lunch blown out the water then! I had £40 to spend for the day!
Bearing in mind I'm a 51 year old Spoonie - I was horrified to discover that there were no seats at all to sit on - on my return with people having to stand everywhere!
I was so exhausted having had no lunch and not coping well with crowds that I sat on the floor (I couldn't stand) apparently workers/commuters to London are use to sitting on an over crowded stuffy train (this is how it is)
The experience was horrid - I was forced to close my eyes to cope with it!
I'm so thankful that I don't have to do this journey daily - I really don't think I could cope with it!
The prices, the service, everything about the journey was horrible!
When I was younger I used the trains a lot and loved it - mind you I was travelling off peak then.
Don't even get me started on the Tubes!!!
Does anyone else use public transport like trains and enjoy the experience?
