What's with all these news reports of on average 4% increase across the
London network ? I wished.

The bus saver tickets used to be 6 for ?4.20 (70p each). Now at 6 for ?6
that's an increase of nearly 43%. What's that ? A 21 fold increase above
inflation ?

And just try finding a cost-effective replacement ticket
for the mysteriously vanished weekend travelcard...

Oyster PrePay *may* be cheaper over a weekend's travel, depending on
your movements...
