why not do a 1 day 1 way car hire each way, cost about half that much then.

There's a direct train on Friday from Sheffield at 18.53 arriving at Birmingham International at 20.13. Cost for a single: £17

For your return on the 14th it's a bit late but you can depart Birmingham International at 22.34 arriving back into Sheffield at 1.30 am. The total fare for a return would be £28.

May be worth considering...

Don't you know anyone who will take you and bring you back just for the price of the petrol?

We went from Birmingham in July and we set off in plenty of time, we were just about to get on the M1 and trafficmaster warned us of an accident and the M1 was closed so we had to go on all the A and B roads. Made it in good time but we did start to panic a bit as we hit the rushhour traffic around Derby ... Train would be great even if you only used it to get there and then got someone you know to pick you up.

Where are you going anyway? Hope you have a fab time.
