On the Tube, zone 1 journeys are UKP1.80 at any time, zone 1&2
journeys are UKP2.30 peak and UKP1.80 off-peak - note that the peak
times for PAYG fares include an evening peak on weekdays, though for
capping purposes only the morning peak counts. Confused?


No, I got it. I think what was making me resist was seeing just how
high these fares are! But nearly everything's expensive in London.


Just wait till the £ has fallen further, and London may start to look
better value...


All those Noo Yorkers who were complaining about the invasion of flush
Brits invading their city a few years ago can now have their revenge!

(In retrospect I really didn't take advantage of the strong pound as
much as I should have, in particular w.r.t. visiting North America. Oh
well, give it thirty years or so...!)
