Of course, there are many loopholes which are amazing value, but I shan't be publishing them here
For each of these I have used there has been a rip-off trip I couldn't really afford which I made anyway or more likely I couldn't go by rail (or couldn't go
at all) because ticket prices were ridiculous.
