After reading my thoughts about surface travel, a few people have asked about the sail-rail trip to London from Dublin. Here are some very practical notes from my experience for people who are thinking of giving it a go. I tend to travel on my own, so the notes reflect that.

In it I cover:

• Booking
• Getting to Dublin Port
• On the ferry
• On the train
• Doing things and paying for things
• Eating and drinking
• When things go wrong (and they do)
• Getting away from Dublin Port
