It looks as if Oyster readers are not working on any London bus today.
Why not?
"Card fault hits London transport"

Don't know what the Beeb are getting at here though:
"Passengers can currently use Oyster cards as a travel card to cover fares
for periods up to one year, as well as to cover single journeys for travel
to London destinations including overground stations.
It recently emerged that commuters within London travelling on First Great
Western (FGW) trains will be able to use pay-as-you-go Oyster cards from
September."
Suppose it depends what the author understands by 'overground' - but it
seems to ignore all the existing NR services where PAYG is available...
