Not sure how much it costs... but the monthly rail-only ticket is "East Dulwich to London Terminals", so by making one change you can also get to Victoria, Charing Cross, Blackfriars, etc. So getting one of those, plus pay-as-you-go Oyster for tube and bus could be a good option.
?55.30 for east dulwich to london terminals monthly season ticket - that's what it says on the southern webiste anyway. It's ?1.60 each way on oyster within zone 1 for the tube (that's what i need to do) so for me it's cheaper to get a travelcard but for some it works out cheaper doing it with oyster pay-as-you go.

where will you be travelling to fi85?


I used to buy a monthly card when I moved here 8 years ago until I found a combination of buses and walking was


a) faster (oftentime anyway)

b) cheaper

c) healthier

d) less hassle


I have worked in Tower Bridge, Blackfriars and Moorgate in that time and in all cases have stuck with the bus to Elephant & Castle (or Tower Bridge Rd in the first case) and walk the rest of the way

176 Currently stops and starts at Tottenham Court Road - I think its due to the works for the new crossrail link at TCR

it's a lot of money that's for sure.


I work in bond street and have just moved to ED (nearest station also ED) and plan to get the train to London bridge then ram myself onto the jubilee line. Can anyone think of a better alternative? In the afternoon i'll sometimes walk to charing cross but realistically i'm too lazy to walk it every morning. thanks in advance

Not sure if this helps, Sophie, but i work nr Goodge st & i normally go to Denmark Hill to >>--> Victoria >>--> take the victoria line underground to Warren st- Oxford circus is 3 stops from Victoria, so that may be quicker for u...plus you'll get to see me growling at slow walking people & people blocking the stairs at Denmark Hill.

thanks Andystar. the thought of oxford circus rush hour in the afternoon is far too horrible but i will investigate your suggestion. I'm going to miss my gentle yet firm shuving of snap happy tourists to get them out the way when i attempt to walk through Piccadilly circus so witnessing your growling is very appealing to me.

    • Yes, they are intelligent ❤️ Various methods of deterring the foxes (aka stopping them coming and crapping on your lawn) have been suggested in this thread. If you don't want to try them, and prefer to keep clearing up the crap and complaining about it, well that's YOUR choice 🙄
    • Weather going to be hot from today thru to weekend so I hope all dog owners walk their pooches early in the morning or in the cool of the evening. Woofers can survive the odd day without going for walkies in the heat or having to race around with their pack in the heat. Try brain games with them around the house - hid treats for them to find, given them a kong..  Mental stimulation is as good and beneficial as walkies and does tire them out.     And whilst on the subject of heat and dogs, do remember that leaving a couple of windows open while you run into a shop etc to get groceries etc …. Is not good enough / the inside of a car obviously gets very very hot… and one could be delayed in ship, thru no fault of your own - meanwhile, your woofer is suffering.  Common sense really and if you are a new owner, probably really never thought it through ie walking dogs in heat or leaving them in car in heat. The majority of people on this site are caring, supportive people only offering advice, expressing concern when they see stupidity.  
    • Weirdly (well, weird as it happened very shortly after I had posted that) I got a notice the other day (the first time in the near enough twenty years since I joined the forum) telling me I had reached my limit of "reactions". I posted a screenshot on here. However I did not actually seem be prevented  from  making any more!   What is your purpose in doing that? This is a useful, long running and well loved (by me, anyway) local forum. It provides information on matters of local interest, an opportunity to easily sell or give away  unwanted things and buy or be given things you want, information on upcoming local events and interest groups. It is also a well moderated place to discuss both local and wider issues. And it is used by a variety of different kinds of people, as would be expected - we all have different personalities, experiences and opinions, and that's part of what makes the forum such a great local asset. Since rescuing the forum when the previous admin left - it could have disappeared altogether - Joe has put and continues to put an enormous amount of work into setting it up on a different platform (?) , maintaining it, and keeping it a safe and pleasant place for everyone using it. I'm sure you and others will correct me if I'm wrong, but it feels to me that dissecting "posters and their patterns" in the way you describe - presumably then to post the results on here?  - is just going to sow seeds of discord which could stop some people posting altogether and generally change the whole nature of the forum. I think that would be very sad, and I hope that that isn't your intention? Are you going to include your own posts in this? You have joined the forum relatively recently, and seem to be self-described as a "Pain".
    • I’m beginning to think YOU are an AI agent at this point  would be less troubling than you actually believing all this stuff
