@Dan - thing is, with me using GNE over ANE and SNE by a mile (purely because it's where my interests are most!), and having a Key Card, I just have to pay 90p for every journey.

So.....if I travel on 6 buses on an average Saturday (the only day I ever really go out!), and with money for lunch and stuff, I can only really need no more than a tenner.

Besides, everyone has a certain aspect of the hobby that interests them most! However, I must say I am tempted to buy the odd Explorer or Day Ticket during the long summer days where I can be out from about 09:00 to 18:00!

Also, all those Arriva journeys have been over the course of about 3 years! lol, and I don't really use Stagecoach much at all.

Get a Get Around day ticket man.  Just hop off and on buses, and see where you end up.

I usually use my Durham District Arriva ticket to get to and from T&W, and then just buy a Day Rover from there on. I very rarely buy a single tickets, as two adult single fares isn't usually a millon miles away from the price of a day ticket.

I can vaguely remember Explorer tickets being in the form of a scratch card. No idea when they were phased out though!
