Oh, what a horrible dilemma - pay the extortionate bus fare or line the pockets of the NCP.

I can get to London for £1.50 on the Megabus but it would have cost £7.40 for my family to get the bus from B&Q to the library.

Had there been time, we would have chosen the polluted walk down Lewes Road we usually take.

We took the car and, even though we were not in the notoriously expensive Church Street car park, we had to hand over nearly £4 to NCP.

Surely it's time affordable public transport (and not just for over-60s after 9am) was made available to all.
