Except it's not. Fares, as presumably you are aware, change based upon
demand and availability.


It was nonsense Steve in that you'd singularly failed to look-up or at
least mention the cheap Advance rail fares (which will have been
available for weeks and weeks now, they haven't just been released)
and instead just quoted the fully flexible GBP 202.70 fare.


I quoted the only fare that National Rail quoted to me. They didn't
offer any advance purchase or any other fare at all.

The BMI fares may have been cheaper when you checked, though given
your slapdash approach I wouldn't rule out you having just quoted the
outbound fare only in error.


Yeah? Well you can **** off and go suck an engine wheel or whatever you
gricers do in your spare time.

Shame the OP x-posted this to uk.transport.


Shame you draw breath.
