Peak train tickets cost more, so consider travelling as early as possible and then catch up on your sleep enroute. I've done that when I went to Glasgow, slept from Cardiff to Crewe, a bit more from Crewe to Glasgow, was *mostly* rested by the time I got there. 4am train from Cardiff, though.

Trust me, went to London for St. Patricks day to meet some Irish 'friends'.

England hates me, I hate London. Can't cope with it being that busy and sooo many people.

Girls are nice though.

Wow, just google mapped it. 460 miles! Driving that after 2 days with no sleep would be just the job!!

If it's a dedicated bus to GG then I would take that, I used to take busses to raves all the time and the journey can be good fun, especially if you get sat next to someone nice

£80 or something quid for the bus down and back?

Don't think I will be able to do it any cheaper any way else!

Quite a few of us that live very close to it don't like the place either!

Oh, and if you hate crowds are you sure you want to go to Stratford?? Do you realise how many American tourists there are in the place at any given time???
