I've just discovered I'm eligible for a disabled persons rail pass, 1/3 off tickets (this includes someone travelling with me). I'm pleasantly surprised it's because I have hearing aids. Having just looked at the website I see SWMBO is eligible too, cos of Attendance allowance for the narcolepsy. That will cut the cost of trips home when we are out on the boat etc.
Any jealous foxes thinking of posting green bile twaddle, poke your ears with your red hot mooring pin, then you can get it too. Or maybe not, being an EU migrant!

Or maybe not, being an EU migrant! I recently got a senior rail pass. Anyone over 60 can cough up £30 a year to get 30% off rail travel. Got my £30 back and a bit more, just from the trip to Aberdeen. |

Mind you, the average life expectancy of someone living in Glasgow is only 65. |

Any jealous foxes thinking of posting green bile twaddle. We've had Two Together Railpass for the past 3 years, because we like to scrounge off the taxes of the hard working chavs and scungers of the UK. Marylebone to Stourbridge cost us £6/person in June. Last Thursday £3.95/person Newbury to Paddington Bear. Last year, Feb 2018, £12/person KX to York (non-stop, 2 hours). |

We had the Two Together card but switched to Senior Railcards this year as Jane reached 60 (hard to believe I know). Jane uses Tesco Clubcard points to purchase the cards ... so rather than £30 each they're free Rog |
