Travelling from the Highlands ??

[HibsNibs]

I've recently relocated to the Inverness area and am finding it prohibitively expensive to travel down to ER for games I fancy attending. Train fares are a joke unless you book 3 years in advance and my old gas guzzler makes driving a no-no (I like a pint or two as well as part of the match day experience)

If any Heilan' Hibbies have any top tips for getting the cost down could you let me know (PM if it's :wink: type info) ?

Cheers.

Cheers - nearest Sainsburys to me is 93 miles away unfortunately

Just do what I did and get someone to send you vouchers. Nearest Sainsbury's to me is over 200 miles away! I got someone in Edinburgh to post them to me. Got my train booked for Hampden on Saturday from Aberdeen! £15 return! :thumbsup:

why not catch the megabus from inverness to edinburgh like i do myself for games in edinburgh works out at usually £9 return if you book in advance i myself travel from lossiemouth at least once a month and dont like to drive as you sometimes need a drink inside you to watch hibs !!!

Good suggestions but since when was Lossiemouth in Stafford ? :duck:

If you have a relative/neighbour who is a kid, you can book the train using a Family Railcard - doesn't have to be your kid (or family..!?!?).

You'll save quite a bit.
