I wasn't the person who said: "buy a day ticket".For people commenting into Newcastle, it makes a big difference. Therefore the generalisation of "Buy a day ticket", when in fact the pricing structure is off whack is quite disingenuous.
And I don't see that the pricing structure is 'off-whack'. You can argue the case that there is no Routesaver option for residents of Seghill, but quite simply there may be no demand for one, as (IIRC) only two routes serve Seghill - and therefore the zonal ticket might be more useful and more appropriate for most passengers.
So it seems that the basis of your grumble is that the people of Seghill don't get a discounted ticket for journeys to/from Newcastle, but the people of Rothbury do. Whereas the people of Seghill get 30 buses a day to Newcastle, but the people of Rothbury only get 7.
I'm still intrigued about your slur on my maths abilities back in post #17. Could you explain?
