    The Apprentice 2011

    recycled glass and rail freight

    Don't see why it should confuse anyone, unless you regularly move from county to county :-? In Birmingham we have a big plastic box for paper, and another big box for recycleables - bottles, jars, tin cans etc. Anything else goes in black binbags.

    Reading Rail Air coach to Heathrow

    On Reading-Heathrow journeys Priv is available only for seasons. On longer journeys (I've checked Birmingham-Heathrow), the discount seems to be around 50% vs the expected 75%, so presumably the discount is given only on the rail part.

    Thetrainline valid until

    Nope, but there is a 21:35, with an 05:26 connection at Cardiff Central the next morning, which I assume (I know assumptions are dangerous) the OP was referring to.

    I had, but point taken. However, in this case, there are no restrictions, so all is well. :D

    Thetrainline valid until

    In this case Anytime Day, Off Peak Day and Super Off Peak tickets are not available - only SOS or SVR as I stated above, the break of journey clauses of which are quoted above. Therefore, as far as this thread goes, it is strictly true! Surely it's a given that any advice given in a specific...
