2012-08-04 - Exmouth Exodus

you suck

What? Why?

I was relying on you for answers...

Is £25 out there ok? thetrainline says thats the cost- is there better?

I am taking the train back for £20.50...

But I am toying with the idea of riding at least part of the way back. Come along!

I have work...

£43 for the return from Exmouth - WTF?!?!

That seems a bit steep. Ride up to Exeter and get the proper train. You'll need to go that way to go to Lympstone Commando anyway...

£43 for that as well!

Invoice work for it, if they won't let you have the time off.

I'm planning to ride back along the way to Weymouth for Sunday plans. 3 hours and £30 from there.

only an extra 54 miles or 5.5 hours more on a bike...

sorry but it was in fact Firestarter. You must have been singing Smack My Bitch Up in your head.

^ is this a meme yet, it needs to be checks thread

was it? well they all sound the same to me!

Fuck I'm stupid.

Managed to book a return from Bristol Temple Meads instead of Exeter.

Sigh. Never book tickets late at night.

A couple of years ago, I rode on to Exeter and took the train back to Bristol. If your reservation isn't too early, you could make it.

That is in fact what I have chosen to do. Thankfully I had booked an afternoon train so I have the time. My incompetence has only cost me £12, mercifully.

Sounds good. Have fun. I would have loved to do it this year, but that week-end is the only week-end this summer when I can see a very good friend. On the upside, I might get to ride from London to her place in Devizes, which is about 100 miles.

19:00 train from Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads (arr. 20:40). APPARENTLY my bike is also booked on the train but I am somewhat sceptical.

Is everyone else (Corlis, CB, et al) getting this same train?

I shall try and book it.

Getting back, are people getting open tickets?

I would hve sorted it out 5 hours ago when you were talking about it, but y'know, I had to do work. Don't some of you have jobs? :-(

You need to get your priorities straight, young man.

That's what I'm trying to figure out. Stupidly my credit card is bouncing so haven't booked anything yet.

You guys need to get me one of these jobs where you play on the internet all day and still get a juicy salary!

I'm booked on the 19:00. Bike also booked...

I didn't bother booking last time, just went to the station and caught the 3rd train

I'm on the 19:00, dumps is on the 18:45 I think.

Student perks ;-)

I'm sadly still not booked:-(

Who's going back on Sunday?

Train only £45 so booked that now... Have a bike reservation reference to collect at paddington!

Which weekend is this? The coming one or the one thereafter? I fear I may be booked up but I'm interested in doing it as I've friends with whom I can stay injustice outside of Exeter.

Checks date in title. Alas I'm busy lunching at Noma then my would-be father in law's 70th. Lots of wine for me!
