Hoping someone might be able to help.
I have tried to Google, but I get fancy limos in the sweet 16/ hen party/ wedding car hire vein!
My parents live in the NW and we live in SE London. They are in their late 70s and over the years the drive has got busier and busier and takes longer and longer, and I was contemplating alternatives.
They are coming down to us for Christmas (for various logistical reasons). I would suggest the train, as that it how I go up to visit them, but with all the train strikes, and mum being a bit frail if there were cancellations etc, I don’t think it’s a great fit.
They were going to break up the journey with a hotel on way down, and hotel on way back… so wondered how much it would cost to hire a driver? Is that a mad idea? (Have been hanging Xmas decorations up all afternoon, might be delirious on Christmas vibes..)
