This is all on map CS from Clapham Junction you can travel on
map WR to Waterloo, or possibly via Olympia to Paddington (if that is
possible without falling foul of the doubling back rule)

To get to Paddington from Olympia you'd have to double back from
Reading. Changing at Acton Town would be OK but no trains (from
Olympia) stop there.

oops - the ticket is valid to Reading anyway, so it's not doubling
back, it's a new journey??

Correct - as it's a season, you can use it for a journey from
Kensington Olympia to Reading (intermediate stations on a Permitted
Route), and then a "separate" journey from Reading to Paddington
(intermediate stations on a different Permitted Route). It wouldn't be
possible on a single without doubling back though, unless VXC ever
decide to stop at Acton Main Line
