I do this journey a lot. It's shit, and expensive, but there's a way to make it less expensive, although it comes with more hassle. If you're likely to do this journey frequently with someone else then get a 2together railcard. Saves a third, so £50 between you on each ldn-south Wales return, and the card only costs £30.
Just had a look, even booking in advance, in say Feb, it's MIN £76 return Cardiff.
It's more like £200 return if I left after work on a Friday. Two Hundred Fucking Pounds!
I could buy a fucking car for that, drive it over, leave it in Wales, buy another one there and drive it back and still have money for a services pasty.
