Yesterday we went to Hull with some friends to Gin School, not Amsterdam!
With the day involving distilling and consumption of alcohol, we used taxis and public transport.
Off peak Saturday day return for the 4 of us, £144!
That's from Huddersfield so was approx 1hr 20mins on the train.
The train was packed, standing room only when we boarded.
On top of that another £40 in taxis fares to get to and return home from Huddersfield Station.
The journey in a nice car at 30mpg would have cost less than £40.
Returning was one train late afternoon, all the other scheduled returns had been cancelled.
Isn't public transport great.
