I like driving aswell and i rather trust myself driving than a plane...Plus i can drive there slightly quicker than the virgin train does i think

I did once do it under 4 hours but that was with no toilet breaks :naughty:

 

Yeah I have done it from London to Newcastle in that time with no breaks, don't know how long to Glasgow though, the last time I went there I was a lot younger and we hitched.:mf_rosetinted:

Just checked the AA route thingy and it says 6.5 hours, so I know it's gonna be less as long as I don't hit traffic. I might drive.

If the flight is about 40- 50 pounds, you still have to get to and from the airports at both ends, so maybe the cost of parking there too. Also time wise maybe an hour for the flight but also an hour or more waiting around in the airport and getting to the airport, I'm still thinking.

The route the AA gave me was straight up the A1 and across at the A66 Carlisle ish. That might be better than M1/M6 because I will miss Birmingham and that, and the traffic is always bad there isn't it?

My route takes me M5 then M6 all the way up

 

Th traffic isnt that bad just avoid rush hour traffic which i intend to anyway setting off really early i imagine i would hit rush hour time coming up through Lancaster - carlisle bit:blink:

 

*still worry about my car though after what happened to Big Girls at Birmingham*

 

I would hate for it to get broken into :boxed:

Well you expect that kinda stuff in Birmingham unfortunately. :thumbdown:

I remember when we drove to Glasgow AND back for my cousins wedding last year - it seemed a good idea at the time :|

We ended up driving back at about 4am singing to a Disney CD very loudly with the windows open to keep us all awake.

 

 

And nooo I just can't go to any more dates :| Even though I really want to of course. Maybe closer to the time I'll cave and go to a few more but I really can't afford it right now. I gotta pay for driving lessons this summer too ...and a holiday in September. I literally have £4.56 in my bank account....and that's it! That's tall the money I have. And I have no job.

Have you got a rail card? My young persons railcard gets me 30% off all trains and you get the £20 you pay for it back in no time!

i used to have a rail card but since i always drive now adays i never use the train much.....

 

and a whole tank of diesel in my car would easily get me to glasgow and back and that would just be £30 :blink:

and i would still have fuel left over for a week afterwards

If you drive, and you use A19, I live literally 1 minutes drive off it, if you picked me up we could share travel costs etc and even share a room, cos I'm sure my daughter would come too, (I hate driving but I wish I loved it lol). Is that a good suggestion or not? OR if you have others to pick up I could ditch my daughter and kip on ur floor lmao :naughty:

SPARKY IF WE CAN SMUGGLE YOU IN YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO KIP ON OUR HOTEL ROOM FLOOR :biggrin2:

AS FAR AS I CAN TELL IF WE GET BACK TO THE HOTEL AFTER A CERTAIN TIME THE RECEPTION ISNT MANNED AND ITS REALLY EASY TO GET EXTRA PEOPLE INSIDE THE HOTEL...WE IT LOOKED LIKE THE CASE AT THE TRAVEL LODGE IN LEEDS ANYWAY.

 

ALSO IF I DECIDE TO DRIVE UP I AM WILLING TO PICK UP PEOPLE ON THE WAY IF THEY NEED A LIFT BUT IM NOT SURE IF I WILL BE GOING BY THE A19.

ITS BASICALLY THE M6 ALL THE WAY FOR ME FROM BIRMINGHAM:mf_rosetinted:

LOL LOL no need to shout :roftl::roftl: are you talking about Glasgow here? I darent book it really in case I cant get there and back, I have work and they don't allow us time off in November, though they DO say they allow exceptions hmmm but it's the travel that is a worry, I'll just get Mika to call in for me on his way past he can park his private jet on the back field I am sure no one will object. :roftl: anyway he says he likes driving so maybe he can just pick me up in his car then I don't mind I'm not that fussy:bleh:
