Typical of a money-grabbing transport system with an unrealistically overpriced fat-cat fare structure. This is why there's no industry or jobs in London any more - every time one goes out of the house it costs a flaming fortune. So I assume the transport system is shutting up shop tomorrow as there is no industry in London and no jobs? What a stupid thing to say. You might not like Oyster - that's fine but don't make stupid comments to over inflate your position. I presume you have now purchased a mega cheap car, insured it, filled it full of nice cheap petrol and have set money aside for the maintenance and repair costs? Happy travels. -- Paul C Admits to working for London Underground! |

I am not a murderer. I don't have anything to do with cars, and I don't like to be accused of killing people slowly and sometimes quickly as do all other arrogant selfish moronic car drivers. I hate cars and car drivers. All of those items would cost far more than can be afforded anyway. The current cost of a travelcard usually entails borrowing enough to cover it as it is, but from time to time this is achievable. Where on earth do you think the money that covers the cost of driving lessons, numerous tests after tests until somehow a pass is obtained, the capital cost of a car, the poisonous fuel, the other complicated costs that go with it is suddenly going to appear from? There is none. -- Ian Tindale |
