What's it cost these days for:

Accy to Blackburn

Accy to Whalley

Accy to Burnley

Down in London it's £1:50 for bus ride no matter how long if it's on the same bus that is. If you get off and get another bus within one hour the 2nd bus journey is free.

Buses no longer take cash and every one has to have what's called a Oyster Card - you top up in news agent's, stations and using credit cards and scan it when you get on the bus. Is there anything like this in the Hynburn area these days? Do they still take cash? Thanks...
I am glad that I still live in Huncote, can't be doing with all this needing an Oyster, Visa, Debit card or whatever, one of the worst things the government of this country did, was to do away with the "Truck Act"; that specified that all working people must be paid weekly by the coin of the realm.
