How about.... (1) A day trip to the Gower

A day trip to the Gower from Bristol is easy and cheap without a car: about £15 return to Oxwich:
First Great Western Bristol Parkway to Swansea advance tickets can be as cheap as £3.30 each eachway. Seem to be plenty going out on mid morning trains and back in the late afternoon evening. Currently available at that price less tahn a week ahead and even for tomorrow FIRST CLASS (with free coffee etc.) is offered at about £6-70 each eachway
The buses into the Gower are relatively expensive - no concession for England resident 'young-olds' - about £4-00 each way. Veolia Gower Explorer is good value.
Wouldn't it be great if Wales Tourism could arrange a combined rail-bus ticket to attract English Concession Visitors to the Gower (and rest of Wales) WITHOUT A CAR!
