    First weekend of the summer holidays? 3 hours to Cardiff from Weymouth? You'll be lucky.

    Might consider trying to qualify myself another time if there are team mates passing through.

    hi wynne... there are two travelodges.  i am in the one near the station as i thought it would be far more convenient for me and therefore preferable to the better hotels.  i had booked another but cancelled in favour of being able to get up on sunday morning and stumble, approximately 10 metres, bleary eyed to the train.  plus i got a deal of £49 per night for a double room.

    hello aussie mate just a quick one thought it was standard to get a lift off hitman_rv as part of his captain duties!!!! think we could fit ya in, only five minutes out the way!! he can come get ya the night before!
