I get the bus to work most days, and pay £4.30 for a Day-Rider (any where in Leeds, as many buses as it takes) - there are also Yorkshire Day Riders for buses any where in Yorkshire for £5 per day, and a pass for all buses and trains in West Yorkshire for £6.20; I am sure most regions/cities have something similar.

Do you really think that was Arthur's point, or is it just one you thought he should have made?

btw, can I ask where you got Arthur's point from (bus services being cut by a fifth)?
