I'm sure an awful lot of people - like, say, my mum when she comes

someone, and surely bus drivers will sell you the best ticket...?


Maybe oop north the bus drivers have all the time in the world to
discuss the best ticket option, that's not the situation in London or
most other big cities. In fact often it's not possible to get multiple
journey passes off the driver, all they are able to sell is single
(sometimes return) tickets.

Well certainly no mention about Oyster on the (North American) pages of
the Visit Britain site. All they seem to list is 3 & 7 day travel cards:
