Our train tickets to swipey's bash
are costing about £80 for the two of us. If you can book early enough you can get a one way ticket for £12.

Plus I prefer getting into King's Cross, I've flown into Heathrow before and find it no quicker from door to door, as it were, than getting the train.

I agree. Kings Cross is very handy.

None of this pissing about landing at the airport
and then having to pay another £15 to get a train into the city malarkey. Oh no.

And Kings Cross is handy if, after a long train journey
You fancy getting noshed off by a young man.

And the best bit is
it'll probably still cost you less than getting the Heathrow express!
