The biggest niggle is the cost, as I've now discovered that rather than
buy an annual ticket for £2520, I'd be better off with two separate
seasons; Hatfield - Hadley Wood (Zone 6 boundary) for £720, and a
LUL/Oyster Z1-6 card for £1580. Total price £2300. That's £220
cheaper, which is a serious amount of money (it's just over a month of
travel for nothing).

I recall someone either here or in uk.transport.london doing something
similar to make massive savings.

IIRC, he used a "rail-only" (term?) season to Finsbury Park, and then
used Oyster Pre-Pay to continue on the Tube.

Could you combine a Hatfield-Finsbury Park, with a Zone 1&2 period
travelcard? Would this do the trick for you?
