Lol she's my Mum and she's bloody picky. I'm sure I talked about her somewhere. She will be very annoyed if I do that. On the plus side, I hope to be hiring out a BMW. :D

Too right! I am not picky, but if I expected to be taken to the airport, I too would not be happy, although if there was a very good reason not to be able to take me to the airport, I would understand! But a BMW is really lovely to drive!

Is it no longer called the Thameslink? I use it to go to Gatwick, it is quicker for me (not having to go to Victoria) and yes, much cheaper!
Thameslink is now called First Capital Connect (FCC); Southern has been called that for a while. Several companies serve Gatwick, albeit only 3 from London termini.

It's not the King's Speech though and not won it the four lions things anyway which is this sunday and doesn't clash with anything so it's not like it should be an either / or situation.

I really hope you're right as I'm dying to see this and still haven't managed to find a screening on a convenient date at a convenient location
