Sounds like you will be best buying the ticket from a touch screen
machine when you need it.


is that possible atm?


If I put my Oyster against the reader on a touch screen machine it
gives me the option of renewing the ticket. I haven't actually done
it but I'm sure someone on here said they had.


My reminder e-mail suggested that I renew over the Internet to avoid
the queues, from which I inferred that queuing for a touch-screen was
an option! Also a few weeks ago I put my Oyster next to a
touch-screen and it offered me the option of renewing the ticket.

I've just renewed mine through the web site: it's actually quite a
clunky process, and the site desperately needs a button jus to get
another month of whatever you've already got (if you see what I mean).
So I'll probably try the touch-screen approach next time round
