I thought National Rail terms and conditions on Saver tickets
allowed a break of journey on the return journey.

How come LUL don't appear to agree that where the saver is to
Underground Zones 1 and 2, issued by One at Cambridge? WAGN
staff I checked with confirmed my recollection of the rules.

From the 'Conditions of Carriage' (1.C.15).

"Please note that a ticket which entitles you to travel on the
London Underground does not entitle you to break and resume
your journey at any of its stations unless it is a season
ticket or a Travelcard."

Oh sh*t!

Of course, you will now volunteer to pay the Penalty Fare for the
journey you made without a valid ticket.

The staff (plural) I spoke to accepted that it was a valid ticket.

In an ideal world the staff would all be clued up, but alas the
railways are not an ideal world...

So it would appear. I'm not likely to make the same journey again.
