Note the lack of denial. However the usual approach is to wait for the last train to depart and then allow them off the plane.Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostGrrrrrrr.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Can it frig! Each time I've used it the journey has taken over the 30 mins they quote and today, because there was a little bit of snow kicking about, every train through Gatwick was very delayed. They put on an extra train (that nobody other than a handful of passengers used) that took over an hour to get from Gatwick, stopping twice on the way. The gatwick express should be done under some kind of advertising breach as its the least express type train I have ever used.Originally posted by Robinho View PostThe Gatwick express can get you in quick enough.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

Point is the Heathrow Express takes 20? anyway so it's not much difference really, and Victoria is a better station than Paddington.
Also you can get the Thameslink for the City, takes about an hour, but right into the City.Comment
