Title: NFR Travel Advice needed for next Thursday
Post by: Peabody on July 15, 2011, 05:25:07 PM
Can anyone help. I am taking my 10year old grandson to next thursday's game. I propose travelling on the tram from Mitcham Junction to Wimbledon. Then the underground to Putney Bridge. Question is, will I need to buy him a ticket? Oh by the way, I have a freedom Pass.

Kaz is taking Kodi my ten year old thursday, she has never paid for her before, but not 100% sure if that's legal. Bump it up when the Daddy is online, he'll know for definate.

'legally' kids under 8 are free on the tube. Just make sure they stay close when you go through the barriers

Not unless you use the main line trains they have different rules over 5 and they pay i believe.Most tube station have a wag which is automatic gives you more time to walk through with kids we call it the wide arse gate .

The wide arse gate? I wonder how these people get through the security machine at the airport? You know the type, the ones that need 2 seats.

There was a guy sat in front of me at the Runavik game - I think where you live Finny he'd be called plus size, but round here he had a three seat arse. He was also so tall I had to talk a steward into letting me move to the Putney end, just so as I could see!
