AshVillain Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I have moved to Sussex, and owing to the fact that my little one is not so little and my working hours being much more flexible I am very lucky to be in a position to buy an ST. However, going by train from me to Aston will take over 3 hrs each way - cost £100+ return at short notice (about £40 for a couple of weeks in advance). This makes getting too and from VP 19 times a year very difficult indeed for me!! I am hoping someone else on here happens to be living near me and travels up by car .... perhaps we could come to an arrangement re costs of travel etc. HALP!!

limpid Posted May 19, 2014 Administrator Share Posted May 19, 2014 Please contact your local Lions Club at http://www.avfclionsclubs.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVillain Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 Thanks Limpid - seems as though no-one from VT is in the area/has an ST etc etc - I may contact the Sussex Lions Club but even they are a significant distance from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limpid Posted May 20, 2014 Administrator Share Posted May 20, 2014 But they are likely to have members all over the area. Just because they are based in one town doesn't mean they all live there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies mods if this is in the wrong place!! Going to make it even more fun for you with all the rearranged games for tv that kick off at lunchtime and teatime on Saturdays and Sundays and the 8pm kick offs on a Monday. Getting a season ticket does not seem very beneficial when you weigh up the amount of times you will be travelling at sensible times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
