Does London qualify?

Return fair from Edinburgh (train) is about £240 - yes that's 2nd class. Flight is no much cheaper once you add additional costs at either airport.

That's a grand a month before you know it.

Bleeding bloody tuliping hell. You lot need a German invasion to make the railways more efficient.

It also helps (unless you are Mich) if this is directly chargeable (+VAT) to the client too, but that's another matter.

A couple of clients ago I was able to charge the end client, that was nice. Oh how I miss those days...

That’s about the same price per mile as a 3 year old S-Class.

The train from Leicester to London was £400 a week.

That cost me £21k pa travelling without leaving the country However factored this into the daily rate so wasn't out of pocket.

Didn't last long. I moved to a site 3 miles from where I lived after the first 4 weeks but kept the increase

Boomed indeed.

If I paid 400 quid a week for a train from Leicester to London I’d be expecting Jim’ll Fix It seats, a well stocked wine cellar and attractive hostesses providing favours for gentlemen.

They had biscuits?

Edit: £341 was the actual cost so not as bad as I though. So only £18k. I could of done it for £202 if I went unwashed masses class but I liked to be able to sit down.

Does anyone else spend as much as I do on travel? Is this typical?

Do exotic Italian conveyances count?
