    Combining zonal tickets

    I can't help arguing with idiots - I really need to get a full time job so I don't have so much time!

    Combining zonal tickets

    I’m having a fight online (where else!?) with someone who is insisting that you can’t travel London zones 2-5 if you have 2 tickets, a zone 2-3 and a zone 4-5, essentially saying that you must also have a 3-4 card. I remember a forum member (Possibly Yorkie?) having this issue and sorting it out...

    Kings Cross to Edinburgh Advances - when are they released?

    Hi all, long time no speak! I’m travelling up to Edinburgh from Kings Cross around 10am on the 18th August, returning at the same time on the 23rd. Right now there don’t seem to be any advances available. Have I missed them or are they not released yet? If anyone knows when they should be...

    Overcrowding - could it be due to migration into this country?

    http://www.rifemagazine.co.uk/2015/01/cant-say-coloured-questions-race-answered/ Coloured hasn't been acceptable for at least 30 years, so it's not a case of 'this week'. If you do want to be sensitive then 'People of Colour' is the acceptable phraseology.

    American Station Announcers

    Not Americans but I have noticed some editorialising on the Northern Line. I don't travel by tube too often, so it's ok with me. :)

    Bendy Buses in the UK

    Interesting that the 29 route used to be bendy buses, it must have been quite interesting for the driver to make the jump across all the lanes at the top of Camden High Street to turn right onto Camden Road in a vehicle that long. I liked them on the 207 when I lived in Ealing, but then I used...

    Fare Evasion 4 times

    Talking to the Police officers I now know, they barely have time to deal with the serious crimes, let alone minor ones like this. And that's before the cuts that are coming.

    How do you fill the time when delays occur or you have a gap between services

    It's why tablets and internet forums were invented! I rarely leave the station, I just sit & wait & surf.

    Gate jumper - staff did nothing

    At Watford High Street the standard response was to shout 'Stop! Come Back!'. But then again, you'd have to pay me a lot more than a gateline attendant gets to tackle those yobs, so I have absolutely no problem with it.
