What's even more amazing is how it only costs £40 return to get there from here (Maidstone, Kent)... and half of that is just to get to London.. ridiculous tbh!!

If you can avoid London the ticket price will be so much cheaper. It's utterly stupid how much it adds. Doing home->gatwick->reading->bath spa was ridiculously cheaper for me and a previous gf than home->clapham junction->bath spa.

It's virtually impossible for me to avoid London living where I do.

ALL train services from here go to London.

Plus, going to London means I can get a coach from Victoria -> Cardiff for a fiver

Sounds like good old fashioned fun Nice!

In a similar vein, my work is paying me to get drunk tonigh with my mates. "Vodka training", probably not as healthy but i'd be doing it anyway, so i see it as a bonus that i'm saving money
