I would never drive that far and always get the train to Scotland ( most recently 2013, 2018, 2019 ) but that might not be practical for you tomorrow.I, in my infinite wisdom, am driving to Scotland tomorrow. Imagine my surprise not to be able to get onto asdas forecourt yesterday because it was rammed at 10.30 in the morning.
Any trains available tomorrow, to Scotland, or the end of the earth or somewhere thers a pub to keep you/@Mudgie occupied?I would never drive that far and always get the train to Scotland ( most recently 2013, 2018, 2019 ) but that might not be practical for you tomorrow.
I've reread my comment and fail to see how it's considered "silly" but giving this forum "a rest" is easily done.A

Not content with your own thread about pubs, you STILL continue to silly other threads. Give. It. A. Rest.

I didn't know that you "did look at trains" and found that "the cost was prohibitive", probably at short notice.Hindsight is 20/20 eh, being told I should have queued to panic buy on Friday or not planned on using my car isn't really helpful.
We did look at trains, incidentally. The cost was prohibitive compared to fuel.
Thank you to those that have reassured me motorway stops have been prioritised with fuel, we'll stop at one oop north.
Scotland is a big place, not always near a station.
Sully, it should have read as sully... Please pub/beer stuff in pub threadsI've reread my comment and fail to see how it's considered "silly" but giving this forum "a rest" is easily done.
Indeed, you are correct, apologies to @Mudgie.To be fair to @Mudgie I think this time he was trying to broaden the choice of travel opportunities rather than everyone driving everywhere. As such his comments are probably valid on this occasion. Give the guy a chance please.
We will be taking a hit on the higher motorway fuel prices next week driving down to the south coast , and topping up each service station we stop at to make sure we get back home after the holiday. Pity they aren't all as reasonable as Frankley services, which has been showing quite decent prices on the approach signs lately.Or spend more and purchase from a motorway which are being given priority so they don't run out.
