It's about 135 miles in total, costing around £27 if you use the cheapest options in my post, so that's about 20p per mile (or perhaps 25p per mile if you use one of the slightly dearer options). That's a great deal cheaper than many bus fares and roughly comparable with the cost of driving and parking.

However - as duzg on here pointed out to me some weeks back, the cheap weekend tickets are often issued later than the midweek tickets, I got mine (for a weekend trip to Birmingham) about a month beforehand.

Using her railcard it's £25.30 return.

There's quite a few more trains on which that £27 fare (an anytime day return so totally flexible) is valid - it has to be used via Westbury though. You can't go through Swindon but you can double back from Reading
To find them go to the First Great Western site and put in the normal search
When you have the results there will be a slower routes option - click this and then click via Westbury. Resubmit and valid trains show up
Other sites may have a similar option

cheapest way of doing Manchester picc to international is to break journey at crewe.
manch picc-crewe is £9.40 advance single.
crewe-international £7.00 advance single.
you'll need to play around with the times a bit, but available from Manchester at 1555, and crewe at 1822. not the fastest journey possible, granted; nevertheless.....
