Cheapest, National Express, but tiresome, or book early with Ryanair, surprisingly cheap, I'm going the other way in November Stansted - Prestwick, £18.74 return (just taxes at the moment)
you can get the coach down with Megabus for a fiver but it takes 10 hours. I've never done it but i've been told they are really pikey with Africans eating saltfish and stinking the bus out etc.
Best route is either Virgin trains to Euston - dont get the National Express one via Edinburgh - it takes ages or Easyjet to Gatwick then train to London Bridge.
It's almost impossible to do a weekend trip by train because of the engineering works - always been bad on Sundays. We save up and fly - not bad if you book far enough in advance as others have said. Even worth checking BMI in and out of Heathrow - can be as cheap as Easyjet.
PS Henry - it's Weegie by the way, as in Glaswegian. Not Weggie!

I mean 'Glasgow to Charlton' on transfer deadline day sounded promising.

Cheers, sorry my spelling not that good.
