Default New Fares

I have a friend who won't get an Oyster card because
she doesn't want "them" to know where she's been
and what she's been doing. Not even an
unregistered pre-pay card...


Presumably she's on benefit and working, in which case the new fares will
claw back some money from her.

My objection to Oyster is the way it fines you every time you don't
concentrate. I have enough pressure to concentrate when I'm working without
having that in my spare time too.

That's why my vehicle's the Piccadilly Line -
It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes
