ooops!... the buses are not too bad!... about a 5-6 hour journey and the planes will cost you an arm and a leg!... Leicester to Exeter is only 30 minutes but do you have a mortgage? Better off going by train mate. :)

Sounds very cheap :-) We can often fly to New York from the mainland cheaper than the 1 hour flight from Shetland to Aberdeen :-(

In answer to your original question.......Skype! lol.
