Having spent the vast majority of my life driving about and also renting a car when I went to Tenerife I was pleasantly surprised when I discovered the joys of the Titsa bus company and bono card system in Tenerife. Not only is it cheap but you can get to most places by bus and the drivers all seem to be nice and one even explained to me that there is a summer time table on the 483 route hence why sometimes no bus turns up! I thought it was weekdays one timetable and weekends and fiestas was another one but at the bottom is a third one. This starts with a word that starts with a V which means summer in Spanish! Sadly I cant remember the actual word now but at least I know what to look for....... Sad old git I am.
Now not too far from East Midlands Airport there is a rail station called East Midlands Parkway. This appears to be in the middle of nowhere apart from a power station so its obviously there to serve the airport. Only trouble is you cant get a bus from the airport to the station...... You have to go to Derby, Leicester or Nottingham, or as I did to Long Eaton to catch a train. Then it was one stop to East Midlands Parkway and then change for a train to Peterborough! Now, if I was an enterprising chap I would buy myself a bus and a couple of Polish drivers.............
