Ok, I am full of questions today lol, but need some opinions:
I have a debt coming to an end, with a family member. Its was a huge amount and should have been paid back a long time ago. They have been very patient with us, and understood that things were tough. The debt ends next week, and I would like to do something to say thank you. I thought it might be nice to buy a meal out voucher for him and his OH, but I am torn! Is it too much? Can I really afford it? I was thinking £30 voucher would cover a nice meal out, but I am also thinking that that is almost the same amount to clear my next debt. Maybe I could do something else, but what? I shall of course get a nice thank you card
Do you have any skills that you may be able to offer them, for example when people do things for me i will often give them a massage as a thank you, or do some typing work for them. Perhaps something like babysitting for them or even cooking a nice meal for them at your house and having a nice get together.:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j

Hi cleosmum.... on London travel - I'm pretty sure that you can never pay more with Oyster than you do with any other kind of ticket as they have a price-capping system. Plus cash fares are being heavily disincentivised through the pricing policy...
If I were you I'd get an Oyster card - just make sure you touch and in out each time or you'll get charged for incomplete journeys.
Would be worth checking the website www.tfl.gov.uk just to make sure
