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

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...

You guys are heroes as always! Got my cheap tickets and good seats :)

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...

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.

I see what you did there, very good! :lol:

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. :)

How are fares decided?

The plural of anecdote isn't data.

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...

That's the probably on the 321 that runs from Watford Junction to St Albans Abbey

Just had an email from TfL saying the strike's been suspended.

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.

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

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.

You'll be watching in 3 minute chunks, one assumes... :lol: What's the title? For <ahem> research purposes...

I was querying the assertion that it was a privilege and not a right to split. NRCoC says you are allowed to use multiple combinations of tickets to make a journey, which makes splitting a right not a privilege given by 'the Railway' and therefore within their power to take away.

I'm pretty sure buying split tickets is a right, which is backed by the NRCoC. When you get to exercise that right, is another conversation.

Reminds me of my friend who used to insist she lived in 'North Chiswick' when really she lived in South Acton! :lol: Back on thread however, mention must go to Bushey Station. More accurately South Watford (or perhaps something Oxhey?) since Bushey is quite a few miles away up a stonking...

^^ What he said! Also these people try to elicit information out of you that they have no right to have, or you don't want to give. I have a very old alleged debt that is still doing the rounds. It's not valid and was challenged and dismissed years ago. It's in a package that seems to get sold...
