Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: Sippo on Tuesday, February 3, 2009, 20:03:14 the transport for london website doesn't have prices for weekend passes. That was the first place I looked.

Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: Gazza's Fat Mate on Tuesday, February 3, 2009, 20:33:46 get an oyster card it will always end up being cheeper. You will never be charged more than the price of a one day travelcard. You will be surprised how little it costs.

Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: Sippo on Tuesday, February 3, 2009, 21:14:37 get an oyster card it will always end up being cheeper. You will never be charged more than the price of a one day travelcard. You will be surprised how little it costs. How much do i need to put on the card though? Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: Ironside on Tuesday, February 3, 2009, 21:21:36 £5
Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: oxford_fan on Wednesday, February 4, 2009, 15:00:20 get an oyster card it will always end up being cheeper. You will never be charged more than the price of a one day travelcard. You will be surprised how little it costs. he speaks the truth. the oyster makes the buses (90p any journey) and tube cheaper, and is much easier than faffing around with tickets/machines/queues if you go to london a bit. Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: Sippo on Wednesday, February 4, 2009, 15:17:16 We only go to london rarely, but when we do its for the weekend.
If I get a card, and say put £15 on it would that suffice for 4 days? As i said we won't be leaving zone 1. Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: Ironside on Wednesday, February 4, 2009, 15:22:32 Buses are a pound a pop since January 1st.
Best bet is a three day pass, no fucking about, job done. £15 on Oyster would sort you for the weekend though I think. At least with Oyster, anything left over can be topped up next time you visit. Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: suttonred on Wednesday, February 4, 2009, 15:24:05 Oyster must be cheaper than that. 2 one day zone 1-4 passes are only £6 each per day if bought seperately
Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: THE FLASH on Wednesday, February 4, 2009, 15:42:26 If i wanted to use the tube Saturday all day and Sunday am.....finish around 9-10am
Whats the best ticket?? Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: oxford_fan on Wednesday, February 4, 2009, 17:37:40 GET A FUCKING OYSTER
Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: THE FLASH on Wednesday, February 4, 2009, 20:13:08 GET A FUCKING OYSTER Stop shouting Oxford Fuck wit! (I will take your advice) Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: axs on Wednesday, February 4, 2009, 23:17:12 I need to get one of these, might see if you can do it online. Would save me the hassle of trying to get one at a station when it's busy.
Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: Ironside on Wednesday, February 4, 2009, 23:25:57 GET A FUCKING OYSTER I agree with the scum... IT'S ON THE FUCKING WEBSITE OR GET A FUCKING OYSTER. CUNT. Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: reeves4england on Thursday, February 5, 2009, 00:55:38 You can't really lose with an Oyster card. And for us tax dodgers its even cheaper!
Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: oxford_fan on Thursday, February 5, 2009, 08:19:45 I do the auto top-up thing now too, whenever my oyster balance drops below £5 they put £20 on automatically, so never have to go to a ticket office or machine.
Once the queues for the machines and the cashier was massive, so my girlfriend swiped her oyster and i went through with her. With smiles on our faces, we were met by the Transport Police who read me my rights. Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: THE FLASH on Thursday, February 5, 2009, 12:04:05 I agree with the scum... IT'S ON THE FUCKING WEBSITE OR GET A FUCKING OYSTER. CUNT. No thanks.....can you do it for me?...Cunt! Title: Re: Laaandon underground Post by: BrightonRed on Thursday, February 5, 2009, 13:08:05 It's also worth bearing in mind that if you've got one of the below railcards you can have it permanently applied to your oyster card to reduce the daily price cap by 1/3.
