hiding from cock pics.

I just went to book a rail ticket and found it's the great rail sale.

Many train tickets are half price and have to be booked before midnight on Monday the 20th January.

Below is copied off the government website.

"From 14 to 20 January 2025, selected advance and off-peak fares will go on sale at up to 50% off for travel between 17 January and 31 March 2025.

As part of this year’s rail sale, thousands of popular routes across almost all UK train operators, including Transport for Wales and ScotRail, will be offering discounted tickets with journeys spreading the length and breadth of Great Britain.

Passengers in Liverpool could visit London for as little as £7, a journey from Preston to Edinburgh could be as cheap as £8.40 and a ticket from Nottingham to Manchester could cost less than a tenner.

These offers will not last long and there are only a limited number of tickets, so passengers are being encouraged to snap up these deals quickly if they want to save more on their train fares."

I hope this helps somebody. It did help me but to remember to book before midnight on Monday.

Turn a condom inside out and dry on the radiator. Once dry apply a good coating of bacon grease and it's ready to use again.

Oh, they don't get the business when they come here, see a disabled woman in a wheelchair and slap on an extra hundred quid or so. They get told to sling their hook and we'll find someone else. I'm disabled, not stupid.

It's amusing how many tradies must think a disabled woman doesn't know the value of money. It makes me laugh.
