A friend of my mum's used to hire coaches and we used to go down to Blackpool and the like for a fiver each when the coach was full. Everyone went off and did their own thing. I'm proposing we could do something similar for NEB (and anyone else who wants to come), and have monthly trips to the likes of Glasgow, Edinburgh, etc.
I think the NEBPT used to do something similar but it looks like they're in a spot of bother at the moment, so I don't know if they'll carry on to do this or not.
Just not sure if I'd be aloud up to Scotland on my own, but defiantly next year or the year after.
I love that suggestion though, possibly have a suitable sized coach depending on how many people want to go on the trip, because some trips might be more popular than others, and make monthly visits to places like Edinburgh, The Lake District etc. Even more local trips like Alnwick or somewhere. If people don't want to return on the coach or vice-versa, then I suppose a reduced single fare could be used?
