Bus stop outside the cinema

[LJC56]

It?s actually 9.00 am. Free all day after that.

I saw him on London Bridge once. Wish I'd chucked him in the Thames now.

Yes. The angles are deceptive. Looks like there's five paving slabs between ESPH and the bus stop and six between the PO bust stop and the dry cleaners. The difference being that there's often a queue of people outside the post office in that six tile space, whereas at the stop outside ESPH people queue alongside the road for the bus.

Foxy, the Freedom Pass works from 9.00. I have just checked the TfL website. If I have an early hospital appointment, I simply pay to use public transport.

Do you need to buy a separate Oyster card to do that?

Just wondering if I should get one just in case.

I came pass on the bus this morning around 11.00 it was rammed from the post office passed barclays bank.

Depends when you take the picture to confirm your point of view. Rose bus stop and pavement was empty down to the gym.

I do have an old Oyster Card. Not sure it would still work.

I got it at a time before you needed to give any details.

Most people just use an ordinary contactless bank card to pay on the bus.

[bonaome]

You can't pay with cash, so it's either an Oyster or just use a contactless bank card. Just be super careful to always use the same card to make sure you get charged the correct price and benefit from daily and weekly capping. NB: monthly capping doesn't apply to contactless yet, so if you're going to be travelling several times per week a monthly travel card might be better value and you can only get that on an Oyster as far as I know.

Ah ok, thanks, that's a lot easier for very very occasional use.

We keep a couple of Oyster cards to give to relatives who live outside London when they are visiting us. Top them up once or twice a year.
