Monthly Rail Travelcards

Living in Romford doesn't only mean they've got orange girls and hair-straightener-straight-hair boys for shop assistants, it also means I'm taking the train into London. Yes, ladies and gents, I'm actually outside the tube net!

Someone figure that for me tho: It's still zone 6 and part of London transport. But I can't use my oyster card because it's a railway station without a reader. I need to buy a paper ticket for which, if I want a monthly one, I need to get a photocard from. That photocard I can only get issued at tube stations.

YOU WHAT???

I don't know if you remember me...

... but I used to post here quite regularly. I'm the misfit, the miserable cow, the maniac. A lot has happened in the 235 days since I posted last...

Living in Romford now - oooh I can hear you, but it really isn't Chav City. I love the market and the flat is just brilliant. I spend a lot of time at home now!

And I'm going to the gym regularly - I haven't checked lately but I'm getting fitter, that's for sure.

Mr Stoner is no more either - we broke up back in January and although we still see each other loads I'm now single in my own mind, although not really "back on the market" since I can't be bothered, really.

I've got some really good friends, a nice job (it's still the same company, slightly different job, and we're all moving soon hopefully near Liverpool Street Station) and a roof terrace - it's 15 days to go until I'm 30 and I'll be savouring the last days as a 20-something!
