Can anyone advise me the best website to go to to book a day return ticket next Thursday? Can the travel from this area be included in the ticket? I have heard that sometimes it is better to book two singles. I can travel from any of the above three stations. Any help gratefully received.

I travel to Birmingham 2-4 times a month.

I've found the most relaxing way to do this is bus or walking to by Denmark Hill then train to St.Pancras. Then walk 5mins to Euston. Then train from Euston to Birmingham.

I've generally found the cheapest way is to buy seperate train tickets and really get a cheap deal from Virgin TRains for the Euston to Birmingham part.

I'm from Brum, so go back there quite regularly. The cheapest ticket is on the Chiltern line from Marylebone to Birmingham Moor St or Snow Hill, which are both just as central as New Street station, although it takes a bit longer than the Virgin train from Euston. It's just a bit of a pain to get to Marylebone from this neck of the woods - the Bakerloo line from Elephant and Castle might be best.

Hope that helps!

      Chicks and ducklings

      By malumbu · Posted

      Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By theweekend · Posted

      I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me.

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By Sue · Posted

      If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By theweekend · Posted

      I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
