    "I'm on it - let's sit together and I'll bring my calculator"

    I am just concerned that the company hiring out the mini - bus are ripping off the organiser/s.

    We'll need a very big seat if you want to sit next to me PL54 :-)

    In which case if we pay by weight you get off "lightly"

    @AFKABartram Crawley FunBus update. 5 spare seats. 15 seater booked. 6am Crawley, 7am North Greenwich.

    How much from crawley way?
    £30 quid
    Blimey - How much is this mini bus costing to Hire?
    Assuming say £120 for fuel:
    15 x £30 = £450 fare income assuming that all 15 seats booked and paying £30 means £450 less £120 for fuel = £330 for the bus hire.

    Can't be that much surely?







    Not that I really need to explain the pricing to you, but I will as PL54 has lent me his calculator.

    The bloke who has kindly volunteered to drive us is obviously not paying. We also decided (as a group) that his two kids who are also coming wont be paying as their father is driving us all up there. Plus as a group, those on the bus are paying for the match tickets of said driver and kids.
    Any clearer for you?

    Estimated Times:

    UP
    Crawley 6AM
    North Greenwich 7AM
    Sheffield 10-10:30AM

    DOWN
    If we Lose (sulking home)
    North Greenwich 6PM
    Crawley 7PM

    If we win (a couple of celebratory beers)
    North Greenwich 8PM
    Crawley 9PM

    @AFKABartram - 1 gone, four remaining

    All makes perfect sense now CWLC. I was concerned that it was a rip off firm hiring you the bus that was why I mentioned it.

    We could of gone down the route of bus&driver, then the cost was even higher

    I am (potentially) driving down from Scotland. I say potentially because it may end up far far more expensive than the train without others in the car.

    Is there anyone needing a lift from Scotland? Alternatively - anywhere on the route down?

    Olster - Cardinal Sin is looking for a lift from Edinburgh. PM him to discuss perhaps?

    @AFKA Bartram - marvellous! Olster - have sent you my contact details and look forward to sharing the journey down with you. This thread is a great idea and one I'd be keen to support in future on the odd occasion I am driving when there are invariably spare seats.

    Thinking of getting 9 of us all on one bus.
