    ok my free Oyster card has arrived... i am going to add credit to it online... how much is the train to Wembley and shit like that? can i easily add more to it when i'm in London? and why are women so gorgeous and stuff?
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Fares guide is here http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/downloads/TfL-Fares-April-2007.pdf

    Wembley is in Zone 4 but here is a tube map so you can work out what zones you are using http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/downloads/colourmap.pdf

    Check the Oyster caps as if you are doing several journeys in a day there is a maximum you will be charged (similar to having a day travelcard)

    You can have your card automatically top up but as you will only be using it for a couple of days I think topping it up at a tube station would be your best bet. As you swipe it at barriers it will tell you how much is left on it so you will know when you are getting to the point you need to top up.
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    I would never have guessed you had a mild lady fascination.

    I don't know why ... is the warmer weather helping you to notice the gorgeousness? :p

    does it ? how's that work then ? does it speak to you...?

    just got a free one as well, in case i ever need to hop on a bus and haven't got a travelcard.

    one important thing:
    Oyster does not work on trains (a bloody pain that is believe me! it's going to change, but god knows when :rolleyes: ).
    so if you plan at all to use the trains and not just Bus/tube, you're better off buying a day travelcard.

    the barrier displays what's left when you go in, and what's been charged and what's left when you go out (just the last part on buses).

    The whole tube-being-the-tube and the train-being-something-completely-different business is so damn confusing.

    :D:o a 'senior moment'? At what age does it stop being a 'blonde moment' and become a 'senior moment?
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you
