On occasions, GNER, the local railway company, offers cheap tickets for travel to London - sometimes for as cheap as £5 return.
Whenever these offers come around my brother and myself like to take the opportunity to visit the capital.
There's too much to see in London in just a day so we tend to alternate travelling east from King's Cross terminus one visit, and west the next. Whenever we travel eastwards we visit the British Museum, Covent Garden and Tate Modern. When travelling westwards we take in the National History Museum and the Science Museum. We've also visited the National Gallery on Trafalgar Square, Tate Britain and walked in the royal parks and along the Thames riverside.
We've not been to London for five years now though; we're both a bit apprehensive since 9/11, and to be honest, I haven't seen any cheap offers anyhow.
