Have you tried Easyjet?

Scotrail are doing deals on berths on the caledonian sleeper at the mo - for £19.99 single - that of course will get you straight from the centre of Glasgow to centre of London.

This will then mean you dont have a hotel bill either.

Unfourtunately the deal on the Caledonian is not available next week -& Easyjet flights are even more expensive than Ryanair. Its this Friday night i want to be in London & its looking like in taking the day long adventure that is the bus :-D

-Thanks for all your help anyway!!

Look at SINGLE (discounted) train tickets, and investigate journey splitting (as described in the article). Try splitting at Birmingham and/or Crewe.

Also investigate travelling via Edinburgh on GNER trains.

How about National Express Coaches? They're quite cheap - cheaper than the train or by air anyway.
