I was last in London in August 2006. I'm returning this week, arriving
Thursday morning at Heathrow T3.

Will my Oyster card still work?

And if I do need a new one, is the £3 deposit still waived if I buy a 7-
day Travelcard when I obtain the card? And how far in advance can I buy
a Travelcard? I might not want it to start up right away.

Thanks.

Yes it still should work. I use mine ever couple of years on trips to London
(or lend it to friends to use to save the hassle of queuing to get one) .
Its got a PAYG balance on it. It is registered, and I check the balance on
the internet a couple of times a year. Yes, if you buy a 7 day Travel card
the £3 deposit is waived.
