    shop around on the internet at lots of different rail agents. (try rail easy, cross country trains, Virgin etc.
    always buy single journeys.
    We are travelling from Leeds to Oxford for £22 for two people there
    £35 for two people back to Leeds.

    the return journey logged up at an amazing £145
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    If you are near, or can get to Manchester cheaply, Virgin have "print at home" tickets for £7-£9 pp each way, click HERE for more details

    You can get a direct to London train from Runcorn if you're near. Try www.thetrainline.com . Go via Quidco (cashback site - not railway station!) to get a few bob back.

    Don't book for early in the morning cos you'll pay commuter rates.
