Yup, had an e-mail from the Tooting MP to tell us about it and how
tirelessly *he'd* been working to enable it - load of total ********!

It's certainly a start - let's hope the scheme grows quickly.

I wonder if they have ever considered zoning the country, similar to
what is done for transport in the Netherlands, so that one card or set
of cards is good for rail and bus transport throughout.

Admittedly, the Netherlands is a lot smaller than the United Kingdom.
