I'm reminded of one of my favourite ever lyrics, from Ivor Biggun and The Red Nosed Burglars. Who was really Doc Cox, the speccy one from That's Life who wasn't Esther Rantzen or Cyril Fletcher. I've ****ed over Italy, I've ****ed over Spain, I've ****ed in an omnibus, I've even had a **** in a train. I've used a badger and a melon and a cat, An inflatable Linda Lovelace and a Davy Crocket hat. They don't write 'em like that any more.
I can beat that. I once caught a flight from Colombia. They even paid me £5k. Really nice people those South Americans. Mind you I never did find my luggage.

Cheers Askew. I’ll look into that, won’t help for next week ‘cos I’m off solo but it may encourage us to rail it more often.
The complications of rail fares predate privatisation. Privatisation simply baked that complication into the system for ever more (unpicking it would see the whole method of allocating rail fares to operators crumble) then added another layer of complication with operators’ own advance fares. There’s only one way to resolve the mess of rail fares - but I’m not going to edge into politics.
