As many of you know, I've been referred to a surgical specialist in London. I am, however, going to spend some 'me time' down there on the Wednesday and then the Thursday if my appointment goes well. Otherwise I may be forced to have a break down in the East Coast lounge and beg to get an earlier train home!
Anyways, whilst I'm down there I'm going to be using the tube alot. I have a disabled pass which I'm assuming I can use on the buses, but not the tube? Would that be correct? Is it worth getting an Oyster beforehand or anything like that?
I'd like to have a ride on the 700s if at all possible, even if that just means travelling within zone 1-3 or whatever you guys think is best. Any 'interesting' traction (I generally like the more modern DMUs and EMUs) that would be unavailable otherwise would be pretty cool. Otherwise, I'm just planning on doing all the touristy things again.
My train on Wednesday will arrive outside peak time, but my journey to Homerton requires me to be at the hospital by 0915 at the latest. What would the best way to go around fares for this? Single fare and then a daycard for the rest of the day?
