It certainly would be - maximum flexibility. Note also that a
travelcard valid for any zonal combination is valid on ALL TfL bus
services over their entire length so you have 6 zones plus some "out
county" bits as well - including the shopping mecca of Bluewater. Oops
perhaps I shouldn't have mentioned that ;-)


Great, now I'm going to spend the entire weekend looking at clothes and
shoes )

Yes - any season ticket (7 days or longer) loaded onto an Oyster is
valid on National Rail within the appropriate zones - it's only the
daily pay-as-you-go which can't be used on NR.


I think this is what I'll go for, And the fact that it'll be one
transaction the day we arrive and then no more need to worry about
having tickets certainly appeals.
