Hoi zaeme! (= hi everyone :-)
Hector and me are planning to go on a trip to Oxford and Cambridge for the last Nov weekend.
Right now I've had a pretty long session looking up fares and times. I came to the point that the best solution should be the following one:
+ 24/11 Leeds-Cambridge by train 8:15-10:44 £22.5
+ watching Cambridge, the Uni, having fun, whatsoever £0.0 :)
+ staying overnight in Cambridge YH £16.5 B&B
+ 25/11 Cambridge-Oxford by coach 8:10-11:25 £9.0
+ watching Oxford&the Uni there
+ 25/11 Oxford-Leeds by train 19:36-0:15 £20.5
The main problem from my point of view are the partly long travelling times and the price.
That means costs in a whole would be roughly £70 plus sth to eat there. But on the other hand, for one weekend it's actually not that bad.
I also tried to do the trip the other way round but fares and times were not so good. I furthermore had a look at fares× for weekend trips to just one of both destinations. The travelling times would be even worse but the costs would be up to £20 less.
I'm happy about comments, better solutions and people who want to join us!
Have a nice week ...

I think it is a good schedule and a good price. You can eat the first day with food from morrisons and the second day for 10 pounds more or less so I think the price is ok.
Count me in!
