i am not waiting for the pic to load
i am still laughing at the title...tee hee. top marks.

question: what would be the easiest way to get from leicester to stansted? train to london then, erm, horse and cart to stansted? i am from the north remember, the south is strange and scary to me.
edit: i can't drive. well alright i can, but i won't have a car.

your probably right
it just seems a bit silly flying such a short distance. you know, planes are meant to go into like, practically outer space.
edit: just checked. the don't go to stansted.

bus?

(~Sunny~, Sun 7 Sep 2003, 20:54, archived)

stansted
is north of london, so any train you catch may possible go past stansted or at least may offer a connection someplace else
( JustHere, Sun 7 Sep 2003, 20:46, archived)

just north eh?
hmmm...interesting
(rnuk - http://www.flickr.com/photos/rnuk/, Sun 7 Sep 2003, 20:50, archived)

not just north
possible a bit east as well... it's on the M11, you're on the M1, as I remember it
( JustHere, Sun 7 Sep 2003, 20:52, archived)

seriously though
there is a direct train link from leicester to stansted...it goes through melton mowbray, oakham, ummm somewhere after that,stamford i think and takes you straight to stansted airport
