Message: [QUOTE="August_West, post: 4355140, member: 1047"] So Edinburgh….. We managed to get about 3 hours sleep in that fleabag Ramada in London, no AC etc… It was doing us no good and we were awake so we decided to head over to Kings Cross which was about 12 miles ( a 90 minute Uber, seriously) from the Ramada. We got to kings cross at 945 and bought tickets for the 11am train to Edinburgh. We were booked the next 4 days in the Scotsman hotel in Edinburgh which is a world class hotel, certainly things were going to get better. The trains were all pretty much sold out to Edinburgh because of the gdamn 150th British Open. No way to by assigned seats or anything. All sold out, so we bought two general tickets and then ran like hell when the gate came up on board to make sure pregnant GF had a seat. We did and the train left on time and even got into Edinburgh 6 minutes early. [/QUOTE]
