Train Christmas Card

I have heard that you get 50% discount and then I have also heard that you can have a free trip a year. My mother lives in bundaberg and I am from Brisbane and would live to take my boys up there at Christmas to see her as it has been a long time. Does anybody know how it works and how I would go about organizing a train trip for me and my 4 boys using my card?

Merry Christmas

We're recently relocated out of state from the entire family. Husband takes the train into DC everyday. I had the great idea to take a photo of the kids dressed in business suits underneath the train station sign which says the name of our city. One kid is looking at her watch, one is looking at the local newspaper and one is looking at his watch, as if waiting for the train. It is really cute.

I'd like to use it as the front of our Christmas cards, but don't have a clever line to put with it. Can you help me come up with something?!

How about :
We're gonna discuss business deals with Santa ! We want more presents !

OR:
We are searching for Santa and are currently at (name of your city) !


Hope i helped ! (:

this girl and i shared a summer romance this year and she is the love of my life but we couldn't carry on because of the distance. we have both moved on now but i still think about her every day. I'm gonna send her a christmas card but i don't know what to write in it.

i was going to send the card with the train ticket from london to manchester in it (i bought when i first went up to see her) and write something like, Your the love of my life or Think about you everyday, I still love you...

It's cheesy but who else can i ask about this without looking like an idiot? help me out..

andd,
It's ok, we were both very in love and we both told each other that alot and it ended very sadly.. i told her i'll always love her.

OMG that is amazing!! im sure she is thinking about you everyday. i think you already have your answer and you know just what to say. GO FOR IT!! definalty tell her all of it!!!.... you are the love of my life. I think about you everyday & I miss you...

My loved on is currently in Texas for AF Basic training. Can I send him a christmas card for the holiday. Nothing huge or flashy, just a simple card to hopefully brighten his day a little. Would it cause him more problems than it is worth?

no, you send him letters dont you?
make a hand made card..probably your best bet and more special because you did make it
