Anger at Oyster cards 'rip-off' as millions hit for not 'touching out'

Tolls are rarely charged on routes you *have* to use, there's normally a "long way round". Which doesn't exist for the US Embassy, being inside the zone. So it's a lot more like car tax, than say the Dartford Toll. That's OK, there are exceptions to the "there's another way round" argument, such as the Skye bridge, before it was nationalised. -- David Cantrell | top google result for "internet beard fetish club" Good advice is always certain to be ignored, but that's no reason not to give it -- Agatha Christie |
