Kmeister Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Train from Dunbar to Waverley, train to Queen Street, the Horseshoe for a refreshment, train to Mount Florida and onto Hampden. Pretty straightforward compared to some of the other jaunts mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maroon Sailor Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Left Plymouth at 14:25 and just left Preston at 20:20 - grim journey and still got over 2 hours to go to Haymarket.

JH-HMFC Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Brilliant thread. Great to read of all the journeys people are making - safe travels everyone and let's hope its a successful and happy one. Short trip on the train from Partick to Mount Florida for me, into southside for 11am.

waynefozzie Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Yesterday was Cornwall to Cheltenham. Today was Cheltenham to Windermere (and a barry wee day in the hills) .

RobNox Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 It's just after 4 am GMT (Gorgie Mean Time), my journey starts in about 5 hours, when I take the 10 minute walk down to Tynecastle for hospitality breakfast and beers, via the Tynie Arms. I really should have gone to bed before now, but my head is buzzing! I'm at the stage where staying up all night seems feasible, but probably not the best idea.

TheBigO Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 For 2012 I flew in from Abuja on the morning of the game via Amsterdam and made the bus leaving from Tynie by 2 mins! Flew back after the parade, very hungover on the Sunday night. Left 26 week pregnant wife with our 2 year old back in Nigeria. The next weekend, she went in to a malaria-induced early labour, winding up in a local, very African, hospital. If that had happened a week earlier, I'd prob be divorced now. And it'd have been worth it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Number 10 hotel will be dodge city for Hearts fans. A friend tried to book his bus in for lunch and the hotel declined saying that they were only catering to Celtic fans on the day. The place will be totally rammed with Celtic fans, I'd actually be surprised if you even get in if you have Hearts colours on. I'd avoid it at all costs, esp if you have your boy with you. Better go to an establishment that will be Hearts only. Cheers John S Hi John it was actually ok. Declined to go back afterwards though.
