Year 6 SATS week means no
tutoring for me and a freedom to roam that happily coincides with forecast good
weather for a day or two, so I researched a train trip to Edinburgh that looked
a good deal at £19 on the soon expiring Transpennine Club 55 offer, but looked
less attractive when it transpired that Transpennine trains don’t run north of
Newcastle on the east coast line, so the route would be south to York, west to
Manchester, then north via Carlisle to the Scottish capital arriving just in
time to change platforms at Waverley station and set off back home again;
instead I booked a ticket for Liverpool, two and a half hours with no changes
and, with the railcard knocking off another 20%, only £15.20.
