enough for a single oyster fare (e.g. £1.80).

about that question, absolutely i am not stupid enough to change at
paddington or hammersmith. plainly i took piccadilly line then changed
district line at earl's court.

Why would that be stupid? Circle/Hammersmith to Paddington and train
to Ealing is probabably the quickest way.

It depends on which bit of Ealing of course, some of which the
Piccadilly goes to directly.
