I like to know so I can take a cruise that coincede with the date!

I believe that timeframe will work for me - will have to wait for final verification a bit later. Now remember, I'm in England for a month - the GTG is just a PART of what I will be doing. I'll have two women to keep entertained, so not much room for carousing with a bunch of WISs!!!

1hr 25 mins form Southampton Central to London Waterloo.
A nice stroll over Waterloo Bridge and you're in the West End.

Dan, the convertible version will not be suitable for the dodgy London weather. Unless you get ion an umbrella also

phelix_da_kat · 23 September 2010, 09:53 AM

For your train journey, try Southampton to Waterloo station.

http://www.thetrainline.com/buytickets/
http://www.southwesttrains.co.uk/

Definitely pre-book, so you can reserve your seat/discounted ticket.

Once in Waterloo, you can get an all day travel pass for the tube (ermm, subway).

Thought I'd bring this one back from the dead - everyone still up for the GTG? I know I am!

BH13GMT · 5 January 2011, 04:41 AM

In principle, yes indeed. I am 2 hours away but I can combine a trip to the big smoke with some vists to friends etc.
