SUPPORT THIS WEBSITE

This website has been running now for over a decade, and while advertising revenue contributes to funding the website, it doesn't cover the costs. That is why I have set up a facility with DonorBox where you can contribute to the costs of the website and time invested in writing and research for the news articles.

It's very similar to the way The Guardian and many smaller websites are now seeking to generate an income in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.

Whether it's a one-off donation or a regular giver, every additional support goes a long way to covering the running costs of this website, and keeping you regularly topped up doses of Londony news and facts.

If you like what you read on here, then please support the website here.

Thank you

    It’s definitely worth checking on Trainsplit for split savings on routes to/from the west country.

      Have used trainsplit for over a year and saved a lot of money compared with other sites that advertise cheap rail fares.

      Hi, go on to Virgin West Coast cheap tickets then you can put in your travel details including dates – if cheap tickets aren’t available yet they will tell you and also take your email address to email you when the tickets you want are going on sale, I did this for tickets to London, good luck

    Much cheaper than using Greater Anglia and buying a train ticket to commute to London. c2c also do cheaper train fares.
