There's surely no rush to get the trip done in the New Year, when you could wait until it is warmer, better lighting conditions, and more daylight hours?
Due to being skint I havent booked the trip and I will not likely be doing so until after Christmas, unless my Dad gives me the £10 which he owes me on Thursday when he gets paid, either way due to missing the Megabus cut off time for Fares it pushes the Trip back a further week, I was looking at going on Wednesday 21st January 2015 iirc, its likely now going to be mid February before I get the chance to go, so roughly 8 Weeks possibly longer depending on when I book the Seats.
Weather wise itll be warmer in London than it is up here so that makes no difference to me unless it chucks it down with Rain like it did when I went to Edinburgh, but then again I wasnt bothered by it, Lighting Conditions shouldnt be too bad either and Daylight Hours should be more by that time anyway, ill be in London for 8 and a Half Hours anyway (8am to 16:30pm), so I would get a good 7 Hours of Daylight depending on Sunrise/Sunset, even if it got Dark around 4pm, it would make no difference as I would be in Coach Station waiting for the Coach back home by then.
