No- I didn't need to take a train journey todayI only use the train approx once a year if that.

No- I didn't need to take a train journey todayi don't use the trains, i hope they get a payrise, i hope lots of people who are striking from different jobs get a proper pay rise

No- I didn't need to take a train journey todayI use trains relatively frequently, but less often now than I did. I have a couple of plans coming up in August for which I'll need to use the trains, so I'm (somewhat selfishly) hoping my plans won't be affected.
Is there any particular reason you avoid using trains, out of interest @Grinchy @SueHeath @Teddybear12? -
No- I didn't need to take a train journey todayHey @Tori_Scope, no reason, we have the car, and use that a lot, i used the train a lot when i was younger, but now i don't go out alone and i don't drive my wife does the driving,

No- I didn't need to take a train journey todayThat all makes sense @Grinchy @Teddybear12. Trains aren't always the most accessible, either!

No- I didn't need to take a train journey todayI'm sorry to hear that your plans have been affected @ExpertByExperience. Fingers crossed you'll be able to go to your group on the 14th, and Comic Con on the 28th.
Would getting a bus or coach instead be a possibility?
I've never been to a Comic Con, but they look fun. What are you most looking forward to? -
No- I didn't need to take a train journey todayYes, that's often the case @expertbyexperience Do you know anyone else who's going who'd be able to give you a lift?
