@@stedoesstuff Thank u. Glad u enjoyed the vids. Yes. Takes forever to edit. U must come to London with the book and use it as your tour guide 😀.

@@stedoesstuff it’s a gorgeous park. My favourite. It’s stunning in the summer as all the flowers in full bloom and they let the birds and animals out (I wonder where they hide them in winter. Still a mystery). Everything wilted or died off in winter so might not look it’s best in winter.

@@stedoesstuff Have a good time. U should get to see the London Christmas lights next month.

@@stedoesstuff Thank you for the support.

Thanks for taking the time to comment.

Unfortunately London is becoming very expensive :(

Here's the link on TFL regarding free travel for children. tfl.gov.uk/fares/free-and-discounted-travel Looks like children under 10 can travel for free with an accompanying adult and children under 15 can travel at a discount with a Zip oyster photo card. Detailed information is provided in the link.

Here's information with a family travelcard: An Off-Peak Family Travelcard allows a minimum of 1 Adult and 1 Child (5-15 years old inclusive) return travel to London and enjoy unlimited travel throughout London on National Rail, London Underground, DLR, London Trams, and London Bus services within Zones 1-6. All group members must travel together at all times.

Thank you for the information. Will keep this in mind when I go back :)

Thank u :)

@@nadinebarnes6431 thank you very much. I have lots more coming up but takes a long time to sort out and edit. Much appreciate your comment.

It was perfect timing for us going the time we did. Can't do any later or earlier.

Thanks for the info. I was thinking of the stations a visitor comes into when arrive in London but u r right not all stations will have everything. Will keep this in mind if I do updates.

@@bobvila1010 7 days travel card expensive. Just buy pay as u go Oyster card as I explained in video. Put about £50 in it and top it up as and when u need to. U can walk everywhere in central London so only need to use the oyster if u r out of central London and the daily travel cost is capped at the same as if u had a travel card so u will not pay more than the cost of a travel card therefore, it’s best to buy PAYG and just top-up when u need to. Have a good time and don’t forget to subscribe. I have more videos of walks of central London coming up.

@@thetraveldiary-55 Thanks for your comments! I forget to mention that I'm intend to go out after dinner for 5 nights of Blue hour photography (10 additionals Tube route). In my 8 days, I inted to have 21 routes of Tube and 6 routes of bus, in different time and locations. Based of the cost of de 7 days Travel card of 42,7GBP + one day capped at 8,50GBP, looks to me, unless the cost of the travel card is higher than 42,7GBP. PAYG is not cheaper. Right? Thanks!!

@@bobvila1010 The 42.7GBP pass is limited to travel on zones 1-2 only so if all the travels are within just zones 1-2 then yes go for that.

@@thetraveldiary-55 Thank you for your input, it's appreciated! Do you know what will happen if I have a 7 days pass Zone 1-2 and I used to go to Canary Wharf Zone 3? I will not be able to open the door at Canary when Tap Out, and will have load money on my Oyster Card? Thanks again.

@@bobvila1010 Canary Wharf station is in zone 2 so should be alright. Another way to get round this zone restriction is to take the bus as the bus has no zone. U only need to touch in when u get on the bus. No need to touch out. Since the pass allow u to use it on the bus so just take the bus in/out of any place which is beyond zones 1-2. Once u r back within 1-2 u can use the tube again.

@@jameskirwin Thank you. Same to you ☺️. You may like to see this fantastic London station as well. th-cam.com/video/LKCkosWPHYo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vzGTjzg_4lbSrG1-

@@BigPaul3122 Yes. A German friend got charged €23 for a bus ride when it should be £1.75. He contacted the bank and got refunded. I advise him to just get an Oyster card anyway since he can’t be contacting the bank everyday about it.

@@matlepak9694 No. train/tube strikes r never over. They r ongoing and happens almost every year. The unions always demand more pay and more benefits for their staff hence there is always disruption almost every year, usually during weekdays so that people can’t go to work. That’s y train/ tube fares go up every year. Fares will always go up due to this. Never down. Weekend disruptions is usually due to engineering or maintenance work, not strikes.

@@thetraveldiary-55 ok that's somewhat scary

The cost of the journey is the same regardless of Apple pay or Oyster card. But as mentioned in the video, it will cost £7 to get an Oystercard so if Apple pay doesn't charge you anything then you would save £7.

@@thetraveldiary-55 thank you!

@@trendingwwwandw Than you.

@@ronaldrayner5049 Good idea. I also only use the Oyster card to travel because if there’s a problem such as if u missed touch in/out (sometimes the system malfunction or due to some other error) or if there’s problem with your journey station staff can check the card and issue u with refund. Can’t do that if u use your bank card.

@@davidyoung5114 only benefit I can think off is u can use the network immediately when arrived otherwise u need to go find somewhere to buy it. The Oyster card now costs £7 so quite expensive. But Oyster card have details of all your travels so if there’s something wrong or if u r overcharged because u forgot to touch in/out u can seek help from station staff who can sort it out and give u refund. If u use a credit card u will need to either sort it out with your bank or call into the Oyster card help centre. A lot more admin/bureaucratic red tape to go through.

@@isabelmarr8482 Yes. Overseas Credit card is becoming widespread and the more it’s being used the more it becomes acceptable. However, my friend from Cyprus came in May and he couldn’t use his Cyprus issued card. It works in shops, restaurants etc but not for TFL. Also, unless it is a contactless debit card many card charges a fee so might not be cheaper in the long run. Oyster card keeps a record of all your travel details so if there r problems or if u r being overcharged because u forgot to touch in/out etc station staff can check the card and issue u a refund. If u use a credit card station staff can’t check so u will need to either sort it out with your bank or call up the Oyster help centre. Much more cumbersome and red tape to go through.

Hi. Thanks for your interest but my videos are generally of walking and sightseeing. I've no idea about this religious group and I doubt if they would allow me to make a video about them.

Costs depend on which travel zone you need. Watch this on the travel zones th-cam.com/video/K5rwhmZ6iVM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OJPfVjMtgR9oLFY4

@@nightking1622 Nothing I know except Apple Pay or Google Pay but both these are linked to your bank card.

Glad it was helpful!

@@prp3231 BAD. Used to be really good but unfortunately have gone downhill. U probably be dead before u get an appointment to see a GP.

@@thetraveldiary-55 then it's worth avoiding living there.

@@prp3231 😟. U need to consider that it’s probably the same for many places in the country.

@@prp3231 I just found out. If you have private med insurance, then you’ll be fine. But if you are a normal pleb with no private health insurance then expect to be fob off at every turn just trying to get a GP appointment.

@@thetraveldiary-55 very sad to hear. It's like living in the USA but with poverty and bad weather

@@nishuadi2624 Only at the weekends. Friday and Saturday. And not on all lines either. Limited to a few number of lines and stations only. Do a Google search for night tube for more information.

@@thetraveldiary-55 thanks for Information 🤝

Hi. According to TFL Google pay and Apple pay will work. However, I have come across both scenarios. One work while another doesn't. The one that doesn't work is always the one that is linked to an overseas credit card. This happened 2 years ago so maybe it may have improved by now.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I see. Yes. This would not have cost the extra £3.10 train fare each way (£6.20 total) but would take longer. Also, the plan was to meet up with another person who was supposed to catch the same train but from Kings+ but she missed her train at K+ 🥹. She ended up getting a different train to Cuffney station and walked the mile getting to the car boot an hour later.

@@thetraveldiary-55 The on a 107 if you go again is about 25 minutes to Elstree and Borehamwood station . So yes a bit extra time

@@oxfamshop Thank you for the info. and your support but I don't think I'll be going that way again as my friend has left the country.

Thank you. Worth all the effort :).

Ur right., its happened to me all the time 😅 im confused because what i know is £3 or depends how far. But me everywhere i go they only charged me £1 😅

Thank u for the lovely comment. I was inspired to make this video when friends and people I know got totally ripped off because they didn’t know how to buy an Oyster card so I just went out with my phone camera and put this vid together. But I’m not young anymore :)
