Well. Um… what can I say?
After my mini-rant yesterday, I was feeling very despondent at the thought of missing out on a blogger meet-up. If you’ve been reading Little Bird for a while, you’ll know designer fashion isn’t really my thing, so the catwalk shows of London Fashion Week don’t particularly thrill me (although the experience of a fashion show is fantastic). But the chance to spend the afternoon chatting with my favourite bloggers was just too good to miss.
I was a woman on a mission, armed with a credit card and thetrainline.com. After an hour of fruitless searching and no movement on that £70 ticket, I marched myself over (virtually, you understand) to Money Saving Expert to see what Martin Lewis had to say. Let’s just say, I <3 Martin Lewis.
I managed to get a return ticket for £25 (!!) from Grand Central Rail who are offering discounted tickets to London from various stations in Yorkshire until 28th Feb. If you’re planning a trip down this month, I recommend you visit this website before all others.
So with travel sorted and a few shows in my schedule thanks to the wonderful people at vitaminwater, I’m on my way and wearing leather pants. Oh yeah, that’s something else I have to tell you. I may have broken my 30 for 30 challenge just a tiny little bit. Only for today though, I promise.
I hope you all have fabulous weekends, whatever you’re up to. After my whirlwind trip to London, I’ll be visiting the post office, the supermarket and my family. I’m such a homebody at heart (despite the leather pants).
Enjoy!
so glad you managed to get a cheap return ticket gal! 😀 squealed a wee bit inside for you when I read that. Have a wonderful time, cant wait to hear all about it when you get back 🙂 xx
