    Poolie - if you fancy another challenge can you look for me!

    We want to go:

    11th Dec (afternoon)
    Return 13th Dec (afternoon/evening)
    There are 2 of us and we are leaving from Reading and will be taking the Eurostar from St Pancras.

    Thanks in advance!

    Just checked the site again and your looking at £54.50 return for the both of you. You can book these ticket now so you can get your seats reserved. The £54.40 are to London Waterloo so South West Trains on the slow train.

    If you want the First Great Western into Paddington your talking £72 return for both of you. Fast journey should be about 30 minutes. You will be able to buy these tickets on the day as they don't come with any reservations.

    Yup, excellent communication there from the soon-to-be-weds!

    Going to have a look tomorrow I think. It's the very end of the month paywise for us both though so we might have to wait before booking... Hope so though, I don't want to be left out!

    The next free evening in our diary is Sunday 4th after tonight, tomorrow we've got to see Judges at Yarm, Redworth Hall, and Walworth Castle as well as a MS to an arcade and dinner with people from church. And I'm sneezing and my voice is slowly going. I may need to take a flask of hot chocolate on tour with me.

    You make it sound like your going to explore the South Pole. Although a little under prepared with just a flask of hot chocolate!

    Those 3 are just not exaclty close, or close to home, so we're going to be out for ages and I feel poorly! Then after a day of trying to sound all happy bridey when I want to sound poorly and horse, I gotta summon the energy again on the night. And I just want a bath and a DVD!

    Candles in my room would be a fire hazard. So much paper! He gave me a great massage last weekend though, don't know if we have time for one this weekend!
