So a return is now more expensive than a pair of singles?




A *paper* return is more expensive than a pair of *Oyster Pre-pay*
singles, which in itself is probably because said singles are
substantially discounted. Doesn't seem to be anything out of order
about that as such.



My head hurts.



Your head will hurt every time you plan a journey with the 2005 TfL
Fares leaflet...


Don't worry, that leaflet will only last until 26 Feb... then
(apparently) then peak-time bus fares will be introduced (presumably on
28 Feb). At least that's according to a poster I saw at a bus stop -
although it was worded rather differently ("get a discount with Prepay
etc etc... this all-day offer lasts until 26 Feb").
