Getting the train, but earlier than that one, do not want to miss opening time on the opening day of the season...

No but we will be on the 11.29 from Clapham...anyone else plan to be on it?

I'll be on the same line, but catching a later train. Only £8 return from the Golden Ford!!!

Go to Paddington not Clapham/Waterloo/Gatwick!

Waterloo = Takes 80 minutes. Stops everywhere (20-odd stations) and only goes every 20 minutes.

Paddington = Takes 22/25 minutes. Stops only occasionally and there are direct trains. Reading-bound trains go every 3 minutes!

Isn't Reading an Intercity express train stop?? Shouldnt take that long surely?

All Virgin trains and everything from Paddington. The Waterloo/Clapham is a local line.

 

[Parson Henry]

Rather not pay the extra and have to sit in a sweaty old tube train!!!

 

[The Wookiee]

Direct train from Gatwick to Reading, takes about 90 mins.

Much easier than messing about on tube trains through London and its cheaper!

Will be on one of the Clapham trains.
Probably the 11:29.
All depends on the hangover.

Se u then 2 Kerry Mayos - shall I bring nurofen?

The best way to do it is change at Gatwick and get one from there. OK, they're slower trains, but it ends up being only marginally longer. And it saves you the pain of getting from Victoria to Paddington. You're on the train all the time, so you can just drink and chill, rather than wasting 40 mins or so struggling across London on a hot, crowded, sweaty tube that's wasted drinking time.

I could go via London, but that'd be silly!!

 

[Mr Popkins]

[The Wookiee]

I will be getting to Gatwick by 10.15, sinking a few pints in the pub in the South terminal, pick up a few cans from Whistle Stop head for the station in order to catch the 11.03 to Reading

Arrive in Reading 12.17

I make the return trip from Reading to Brighton regularly and the easiest way is via Gatwick. No hassle of going through London and just 1 change.

I will be Wookie. Say Hello. (see my avatar) I take it you don't look like your avatar so I don't know what you look like.

For info. Does everyone know that 4 or 3 people can travel for the price of 2 tomorrow. Apparently you just have to ask at the ticket office.

There are 7 of us going from Haywards Heath for £10.40 each!
