A few months back I posted about train travel and best parking options and was roundly booed by the SEN spotters for being off topic. So, without any hint of irony, I'm sure you will all understand when I point out that coach travel to and from an airport is off topic and best left to the wonderful bus and coaches forum (if such exists?). Onwards and upwards.
