Reteos:Where is eastbourne? .. thats hours and hours from me too lolBy National Express coach it could mean a 2 hour wait in London, making the journey very long. However by train (in the example I looked at) you need only an extra tube journey (Marylebone to Victoria) for which you have a comfortable 45-50 minutes, and the total time is 4 hours and 37 minutes, which is not too bad.

Reteos:plus the 1 hour 30 to get to london on the train.No, I included the time from Stratford. Here's my example in full: You depart from Stratford at 09:36 and reach London Marylbone at 11:58. A tube journey and you leave London Victoria at 12:47 and reach Eastbourne at 14:13. So the journey from London to Eastbourne only takes about an hour and a half. The total time is 4 hours and 37 minutes, so the only 'plus' is the time taken to get from your house to Stratford railway station.

Or someone who could pick you up on their way, perhaps.

Reteos:Sorry for the confusion I live in Northampton..In this case, the coach takes 6 hours and a bit with a 70 minute break in London, which I would call a long journey, but not unmanageable. By train it's a tube from Euston to Victoria for which you have a very comfortable 50 minutes, and the total time is 3 hours 19 minutes. So it's easier to get from Northampton to Eastbourne than from Stratford.

ceigered:Esperantujo - expect a redebate about gender pronouns if the alien species is asexual,I was pleasantly surprised when an alien creature in a recent episode of the TV series Futurama was neither he nor she, but 'ŝli.' They put in a joke just for the esperantists who were watching! (To everyone else, it was just a funny-sounding pronoun). Jolly good.
To calm down I also go for a long walk, or make a loaf of bread. It's both physical and rewarding, and requires a bit of finesse as well. Akvo kaj pano servas al sano, people.
