Letter: Heading off

Published 23 November 2011

From Tony Budd

A train travel advert urging us to “experience life as a Tudor” was mentioned in Feedback (12 November) – but I thought it was well known that Henry VIII went everywhere by rail. Recall the London Underground poster showing Henry buying a ticket: “Tower Hill, return, please”, with the graffiti punchline: “and a single for the wife”.
