A combination of an offer price that was only available online, and I didn't
have time to queue for half an hour for the ticket office, so it was a case
of using Oyster PAYG and then buying an NR single from a machine to get me
home. I don't think the NR machines at Victoria would sell a Brighton to
Z1-6 travelcard anyway.
