Sat, 17 Mar 2012, Jarle H Knudsen remarked: The home page http://www.oxfordtube.com/index.php actually has ""With buses **from** every 10 minutes, 24 hours a day ......" (emphasis added). It doesn't. Their copywriters will thank you for confirming the success of their drafting so as to get you to miss the "from". But you may possibly take some comfort from the fact that AIUI that trick only works with people who read English well. So it doesn't work with visitors who (like me) have to tackle any language other than our native tongue pretty much word by word. I used copy and paste from the flash at their front page. Here is a screenshot: http://imgur.com/l40dy . I agree. It says simply "With coaches every 10 minutes, 24 hours a day you will never have to wait long..." And even with *from 10 minutes* that's an exaggeration compared to the timetable, which has at best "Every 10-15 mins" from 0800 to 1950 (and fewer at other times of day). -- Roland Perry |
