Default Silly 'break of journey' question

Well that's not what the ticket clerk at our local station told me when I
asked whether I could book a ticket from Manchester to Reading via London,
and then break my journey for an afternoon at Bletchley.

He said break of journey was only allowed if you claimed to be too ill to
proceed without the break. Emphasis on the word "claimed".


Was this an Anytime Single, on which he would be wrong, or an Off Peak
Single, on which break of journey may be prohibited (and often is) by the
ticket restrictions?
